Allows you to select the font to use, to create a new font, or to edit the current font library. New fonts are created from existing font libraries.
Current Font: Select the font to use.
Font Editor...: Start the Font Editor. The Font Editor allows you to view character sets, remove trained samples, display user-defined characters, and more. See the Font Editor section for details.
New Font...: New Fonts can be made based on existing default fonts. Press the [New Font...] button, select the font template you want to base on, and give the new font a name. See the Add/Remove Fonts section for instructions on how to add and remove user fonts.
Confidence: Allows you to specify the minimum level of character identification confidence required before a character will be read and output. (Range: 0.0 to 1.0)
Allows you to specify the width and height of a character (in pixels) or use Auto Size. Disable Auto Size for more reliable reading.
Auto Size: Allows you to specify the width and height of a character (in pixels) or use Auto Size. Disable Auto Size for more reliable reading.
Width: Specifies the character width (in pixels) when Auto Size is disabled. (Range: 10-200)
Height: Specifies the character height (in pixels) when Auto Size is disabled. (Range: 10-200)
Connection Strength: Helps correct for characters that are either touching or are formed by individual dots such as those produced by a dot peen stylus or inkjet printing.
This parameter ranges from -3 (AutoVISION will search for characters that are underprinted or not touching) to 3 (AutoVISION will search for characters that are overprinted or touching).
When set to 0, AutoVISION does not perform any pre-processing (multiple passes of an "erode" function for -3, -2, and -1 or multiple passes of a "dilate" function for 1, 2, and 3), so processing time will be decreased.
Match String: Allows you to specify the string that must be matched for the OCR Tool to pass. See the OCR Tool Match String for details. (up to 254 strings)
Makes it easier for the tool to recognize and read characters in an image. See the Image Pre-Processing section for details.
