A-61635 December 2010
Kodak Capture Pro Software is capable of using color or grayscale images as
a source for bar codes or OCR text. However, the performance and reliability
of Capture Pro Software will be enhanced if you use a black and white image
instead as a source.
To capture a black and white image for the creation of bar code zones or OCR
zones:
1. Select Capture>Page Setup List. The Page Setup List dialog box will be
displayed.
2. Select a simultaneous scanning page setup from the list (e.g., Color and
Black & White - 200 DPI - Delete Blanks).
3. Place the color/grayscale original in the scanner and click the green Start/
Scan icon. The images will be displayed in the Image Viewer.
4. Select the black and white image containing bar codes and OCR zones
and click the right mouse button to display the Image context-sensitive
menu.
5. Select Edit>Copy Image to Bar Code/OCR setup. The Copy Image to Job
Setup dialog box will be displayed.
6. Enter the new image name in the text box and click OK.
7. Click File>Job Setup. The Job Setup dialog box will be displayed.
8. Open the Capture tab and select either Separation>By Bar Code Zones
or Separation By OCR Zones. Depending on your selection, the Bar
Code or OCR window will be displayed.
9. The new image name will be displayed in the Image drop-down box.
Follow the procedures for defining a bar code zone or OCR zone described
in the previous chapter.
10. Click OK.
