A.3.15.1 OCR Templates
A custom "template," or character string defines the length and content of
OCR strings that will be read with the imager. Several choices are avail-
able when creating a custom template for the application. Create a tem-
plate for a single format, string together several formats, or you can create
a template for a user-defined variable. These choices are described in
more detail below.
