OCR Indexing
Drawing and selecting
OCR zones
6-22
OCR zones are drawn in the Bar Code and OCR Setup window. Once you
define an OCR zone, you can set up the OCR properties.
To draw an OCR zone:
1. Select the OCR button in the Bar Code and OCR Setup Tool bar.
2. Place the mouse cursor at the top left corner of the area of the displayed
image where you want to define the OCR zone.
For variable length and height OCR indexing, make sure that you draw the
zone large enough to capture all indexing data. At the same time, be
careful not to draw the zone too large so that stray data (e.g., lines on a
form) can accidentally be captured.
NOTE: OCR zones are application-specific; not image-specific. Therefore,
displaying a new image will continue to display the zones as defined.
3. Click the left mouse button and drag the cursor until a rectangle is drawn
around the text area.
As the rectangle is drawn, the x and y coordinates and width and height
are displayed (in 1/100 in.) in the status bar at the bottom of the screen.
