Using Text Enhanced for Scans

Text Enhanced is designed for use with OCR (Optical Character Recognition)
software. This setting increases the contrast in black and white scanning to
assist in the accurate recognition of characters in OCR software. Resolution
should be at least 300 dpi for OCR scans.
For applications that operate in "windowless" (UI-less) mode (including most
OCR applications), ScanGear CS-S automatically uses the Text Enhanced
setting when the check box is selected and the application requests a Black
and White scan.
Selecting Text Enhanced
For applications that request a Black and White scan and use no ScanGear CS-
