Verifying text

After performing OCR, you can compare any part of the recognized text against the corresponding part of the original image, to verify that the text was recognized correctly.

|To do this: |Use this: |

|Turn verifier on |F9 or [pic] |

|Turn verifier off |Esc or F9 or [pic] |

|Turn verifier on/off temporarily |F8: press and hold down |

|Show verifier until next keystroke |Double-click on word |

|Zoom display in |Alt + Num + or click in verifier |

|Zoom display out |Alt + Num – or click in verifier |

|Make verifier dynamic or docked/floating |Alt + Num / |

|Dynamic context (scroll through 3 values) |Alt + Num * |

The verifier tool is in the Formatting toolbar. The verifier can also be controlled from the View menu.

To modify the size of the text context:

• Press Alt + Num * as many times as required.

• Select the appropriate Verifier menu item from the View menu.

• You should proofread and verify texts before doing large-scale editing. If you cut and paste large blocks of text, the links between text and image may be disturbed.

• You can use OmniPage Pro’s text-to-speech facility to have the recognized text read aloud as another way of verifying text. You can hear the text letter-by-letter, word-by-word, line-by-line, sentence-by-sentence or in whole pages.

• Suspect and non-dictionary words may be marked in the Text Editor. Proofing stops only on marked words, and removes the marking as you move on. You can verify any words in the text, whether marked or not.

• Turn the verifier on and use the Find Next Suspect tool or F4 to quickly verify suspect words. Use the shortcut menu to get dictionary suggestions and proofing commands.

Converting Text to Speech

OmniPage Pro can convert your recognized text into speech and read it out loud, allowing you to listen to your document. This may help you as you verify the text.

ScanSoft RealSpeak speech facility is offered for a wide range of languages: currently: English (US and International), Brazilian Portuguese, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Spanish and Swedish..All speech systems will be installed with OmniPage Pro if you choose a complete installation. If you perform a custom installation, you can choose the languages you need. If you later want to read text aloud in a language you did not choose, you can install it from your program CD.

To have text read aloud:

1. Enable the Text-to-Speech facility with the menu item Speech Mode in the Tools menu, or with the F5 key.

2. Use the menu item Speech Settings to select a voice (for example, male or female for a given language), a reading speed and the volume.

3. From now on, movements of the insertion point in the Text Editor will cause text to be read aloud. Make selections with the mouse or use keyboard keys as shown below.

4. Turn the Text-to-Speech facility off by clicking the Speech Mode menu item again.

|To hear text: |Use these keys: |

|One character at a time, forward or back |Right or left arrow. Letter, number or punctuation names are |

| |spoken. |

|Current word |Ctrl + Numpad one ( 1 ) |

|One word to the right |Ctrl + right arrow * |

|One word to the left |Ctrl + left arrow * |

|A single line |Place the insertion point in the line |

|Next line |Down arrow |

|Previous line |Up arrow |

|Current sentence |Ctrl + Numpad two ( 2 ) |

|From insertion point to end of sentence |Ctrl + Numpad six ( 6 ) |

|From start of sentence to insertion point |Ctrl + Numpad four ( 4 ) |

|Current page |Ctrl + Numpad three ( 3 ) |

|From top of current page to insertion point |Ctrl + Home |

|From insertion point to end of current page |Ctrl + End |

|Previous, next or any page |Ctrl + PgUp, PgDn or navigation buttons |

|Typed characters |Each typed character is pronounced, one by one, including |

| |punctuation. |

* If the cursor is in the middle of a word, you will first hear a word fragment, but from the second keystroke you will hear whole words.

• The three basic speech keys are neighbors on the keyboard. Use Ctrl + Numpad one, Ctrl + Numpad two and Ctrl + Numpad three respectively for Read current word, Read current sentence and Read current page.

You also have the following keyboard controls:

|To do this: |Use this: |

|Pause/Resume |Ctrl + Numpad five ( 5 ) |

|Set speed higher |Ctrl + Numpad plus ( + ) |

|Set speed lower |Ctrl + Numpad minus ( - ) |

|Restore speed |Ctrl + Numpad asterisk ( * ) |

Be sure the selected RealSpeak voice is for the same language as the text you intend to read.
