General Bar Code and
OCR Properties
6-28
The General Bar Code and OCR Properties dialog box provides application-
level bar code properties that apply to all bar code and OCR zones defined for
the application.
To set General bar code or OCR properties, follow the steps below.
1. From the Bar Code and OCR Setup window, choose the General Bar
Code and OCR Properties button
The General Bar Code and OCR Properties dialog box appears.
2. Enter values in the Extract bar codes/OCR from images between
minimum and maximum fields.
The values entered in these fields limit the images from which bar codes or
OCR text will be read to only those whose size falls in between these
values. This is useful when using bar code header sheets for document
separation and indexing that are significantly smaller than the rest of the
pages of the document. This option can increase the performance of
scanning into the bar code/OCR application. When this option is enabled,
the minimum default value is 1000 bytes and the maximum default value is
100,000 bytes.
3. Enable Alternatively search bar codes/OCR on rear side if you want to
search for the bar code/OCR text on the rear side of the document.
Enabling this option increases document/batch separation and indexing
accuracy when pages are accidentally reversed before scanning.
4. Specify a number in the Number of extra bar codes/OCR to search for
field if you want Capture Software to search the image for the specified
number of extra bar codes.
By default, Capture Software searches for bar codes equal to the number
of bar code zones defined. Use the Number of extra bar codes/OCR to
search for field when documents contain extraneous bar codes (that will
not be used for indexing) in addition to the expected bar codes. It is
primarily useful when the expected bar codes are defined to be Anywhere
on an image with a Keep bar codes with mask value. The default is two
extra bar codes.
NOTE: This option does not apply to OCR indexing.
5. Click OK to set the general bar code or OCR properties you entered.
from the tool bar.
