Use languages and dictionaries to improve accuracy
—select this option to automatically check
the validity of the recognized words. An OCR engine looks at each letter or symbol on the
page individually, then “guesses” what the letter or symbol is based on the shape. Therefore,
the OCR engine may have more than one guess for a particular letter or symbol, a “best
guess”, a “second-best guess”, and so on. This option tells the OCR engine to look through the
dictionary to validate its best guess for the letters in that word; if its best guess is not in the
dictionary, it checks for the second-best guess, and so on.

For example, if the word “house” appears in the original document but the OCR engine is
75% sure that the “o” is actually an “a”, the finished document would have the word “hause”.
Turning this option on tells the OCR engine to look at the other letters in the word, check to
see which version of the word is in the dictionary, and output the correct word “house” in the
final document.
