OmniPage SE User’s Guide 21

Chapter 2

Introduction

You probably use your computer for business correspondence, preparing

reports, handling data and an ever-increasing number of other uses. The

challenge is that, in spite of the digital revolution, certain sources of

information still circulate in printed, paper form and cannot be used

immediately in a computer.

For example, if you want to incorporate information from a magazine

article in a report you are preparing, you somehow have to get the text

from the article into your computer. Painstakingly retyping the article is

not an appealing solution.

This chapter introduces you to the solution: optical character recognition

(OCR). It describes how OmniPage SE uses OCR technology to

transform text from scanned pages or image files into editable text for use

in your favorite computer applications.

We present the following topics:

X What is optical character recognition

• Documents in OmniPage SE

• Basic processing steps

X The OmniPage Desktop

X Managing documents
