| OCR Application
|
| All documents that are scanned are treated by the computer as graphic images. Acting as an image-to-text converter, an OCR (Optical Character Recognition) application program recognizes letters on a page and write them into an editable text file or a text-searchable pdf file. After the scan and recognition process completes, a linked text editor or viewer automatically opens, enabling you to instantly view, correct, and edit the converted image as a text document.
