Select a dictionary for use in spell checking and with the Language 
Analyst. The dictionary should correspond to the language of the 
document you’re scanning. The American-English dictionary is named 
useng.ndx; the British-English dictionary is named ukeng.ndx.

Foreign-language dictionaries are available from your local Caere dealer 
or by calling Caere at (800) 535-SCAN or (408) 395-5733.

The Document Type list box lets you select various font characteristics of 
your document. 

Select this when you scan conventionally printed text characters.

Select this when you scan characters printed in draft mode by a 9-pin dot-
matrix printer. Do not select Dot matrix for pages printed in near-letter-
quality mode or printed by a 24-pin dot-matrix printer. 

When you are finished scanning with the Dot matrix setting, be sure to 
deselect the setting. It is only appropriate for draft-mode, 9-pin dot-matrix 
printed material.

Select this if you want to start a scan by pressing a key or key combination. 
Certain applications may crash if you click Scan Text... in the File or 
Windows Control menus. You’ll need to enable a hot key to start a scan 
within these applications. 

Choose a hot key by first selecting or typing in a key in the Enable hot key 
list box. Then click on Ctrl, Shift, or Alt to set up a key combination. For 
example, if F2 appears in the list box and Ctrl and Shift are selected, then 
you can start a scan by pressing the Control-Shift-F2 key combination. 

Click the Full Page icon to let Direct recognize all the text on a scanned 
page. Direct will determine column structure according to the Page Layout 
setting in the Options dialog box. 

If you want Direct to only recognize parts of a page, click the Partial Page 
icon. After the scan, you’ll be able to select specific parts you want 
recognized. See Chapter 2, How to Scan Text.
