Scanning with Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is like a printer in reverse. Instead of printing what's on the screen onto paper, OCR converts text and numbers on a scanned page into editable text and numbers. You can then work with the text and numbers to edit, spellcheck, change font or type size, sort, calculate, and so forth. You must have installed the OmniPage Pro 12 software on your computer in order to use the OCR options with the One Touch 4. 0 software and your Xerox DocuMate 272 scanner. One Touch 4. 0 and OmniPage Pro 12 work together to combine scanning with OCR processing into one integrated step. OmniPage Pro 12 is on the Disc 2 CD that you received with your scanner in case you haven't installed it yet. If OmniPage Pro 12 is installed, the OCR process is automatic when the page format on the One Touch Properties window is a text format, such as DOC, TEXT, XLS, RTF, and so forth. NOTE: If OmniPage Pro 12 is not installed on your computer, items scanned as a text format are still converted with the OCR process, however the options available with the process are then limited. But you can also set up any other button to scan and OCR the text.
To scan with OCR:
1. To scan using the buttons on the scanner, press the Destination Selector until the LED is at 6, then press the Simplex or Duplex button.

2. To scan from the One Touch Button Panel, click the One Touch icon in the Windows system Tray, click the arrows to see Button 6, then click Button 6.
Click the arrows until Button 6 is on the panel, then click Button 6.
Your scanned pages appear in the Destination Application with their text ready for editing and other text processing. NOTE: OCR scanning is also for spreadsheets so you can work in Microsoft Excel (or other spreadsheet application) with the figures and text from the original spreadsheets.
Selecting OmniPage OCR Options
The OCR Options are only available if you have installed OmniPage Pro 12 on your computer. Scanning to PaperPort to use its OCR capabilities does not offer the options in this section. NOTE: OmniPage OCR options apply globally to all the One Touch buttons that perform OCR. For example, Button 6 is set by default to OCR text, but Button 8 is not. If you reconfigure Button 8 to also OCR text, the OCR options you select for Button 8 will also apply to Button 6.
To select OmniPage OCR options:
1. Using the arrows, choose a button that has Destination Applications that use the text format as their file type. Select the Destination Application to get one of the text format file types as the page format. Right-click on the page format icon to see the menu.
