Tutorial 5 — Scanning a Single Column or Table
Recognize a Memo With a Table
So far in these tutorials, you have scanned two different multiple-column
documents with various settings. You may need to scan spreadsheets,
tables, or memos. Although these also have multiple columns, these
documents usually rely on tabs to maintain formatting. The Single Column
or Table zoning method is specifically designed to recognize this sort of
document.
You will use the Single Column or Table zoning method in this tutorial. You
will also learn how to speed processing and increase recognition accuracy
by creating a zone contents file and a zone template.
There are three exercises:
• Recognize a Memo With a Table
• Create a Zone Contents File

You will use the Single Column or Table Page sample in this exercise.

sure it is aligned correctly.
