Add a zone recognition profile
A zone recognition profile performs zonal character recognition. This means that recognition is performed only for a specified area of a document.
This type of recognition is run on demand during the extraction process, and only when either an Advanced Zone Locator or an A2iA locator zone is configured.
If you process PDF documents that have embedded text, no recognition is performed if the Use PDF text if available option is selected in the zone properties.
If this option is not selected, the PDF documents are treated as TIF files and recognition is performed on zones as needed.
You can add a zone recognition profile by following these steps:
-
On the
Project tab, in the
Configuration group, select
Project Settings
.
- Select the Recognition tab to view the recognition settings.
- Click the Zone Profile button. A properties window is displayed.
-
Choose a
Zone Recognition Method.
The properties displayed on the window update automatically if you select a different recognition method.
- Edit the zone recognizer properties and click OK to save your settings and add the new profile.
- Optionally, rename the new profile so it has a descriptive name.
- Optionally, click OK to close the Project Settings window.
- Save the changes to your project.
