EFINING THE DOCUMENT CHARACTERISTICS
Next to the document language, other document characteristics such 
as the Font type and Character pitch play an important role in the 
recognition process. 
Font type
Readiris distinguishes between "regular" and dot matrix printed 
documents. Dot matrix symbols (of the type 9 pin) are made up of 
isolated, separate dots. 
Special segmentation and recognition techniques are required to 
recognize dot matrix documents and need to be activated.
