The dictionary icon indicates a language with dictionary support
available. The dictionary is consulted to help in the OCR process.
It can also offer suggestions during proofing.
User Dictionary—A user dictionary is your personal dictionary
with words that you want the OCR proofreading process to
recognize as legitimate words. For example, if you scan documents
with highly technical terms not found in typical dictionaries, you
can add them to your personal dictionary. You can also add names
that you expect to be in the documents too. That way, when the
OCR process proofreads the text, names will not be considered
misspelled words.You can create multiple user dictionaries.
Click the menu arrow and select a user dictionary from the list. Any
Microsoft Word user dictionaries detected on your computer
system are also listed. A dictionary named Custom is your default
Word dictionary.
To create a user dictionary, click the button next to the menu arrow.
Click New, type a name for the dictionary, and click OK. Click
Close and then choose your new dictionary from the list. It will be
used during the OCR process. You add words to a dictionary
during the proofreading process. To turn on the proofreading
process for your scanned documents, see the OmniPage Pro
documentation.
Professional Dictionaries—These are legal and medical
dictionaries containing highly specialized words and phrases. The
options are: Dutch Legal, Dutch Medical, English Legal, English
Medical, French Legal, French Medical, German Legal, and
German Medical. Click the checkbox next to a dictionary name to
select it.
Reject Character—This is the character that the OCR process
inserts for an unrecognizable text character. For example, if the
OCR process cannot recognize the J in REJECT, and ~ is the reject
character, the word would appear as RE~ECT in your document.
The ~ is the default reject character.
Type the character you want to use in the Reject character box. Try
to choose a character that will not appear in your documents.
