3D OCR
3D
 OCR is a revolutionary new technology that is available to OmniPage 
Professional users. 3D OCR is designed to provide precision accuracy for 
the most difficult-to-read documents such as multi-generational 
photocopies and pages with very small type. It does this by recognizing 
gray parts of images as well as bi-level, black and white parts.
Examination of the character’s gray data, in addition to the black character 
image, provides a complete picture of the character’s shades, shapes, and 
contours for the highest accuracy possible. 
For example, imagine typing on a typewriter with a ribbon that was 
running out of ink. Some of the characters on the page will be illegible; for 
instance, the letter 
n
 might look like the letter 
r
. The missing section might 
appear very lightly inked; 3D OCR evaluates the grayscale information of 
that lightly inked area and correctly recognizes the character as an 
n
.
Or, imagine applying too much ink to a rubber stamp. When you apply the 
stamp to a piece of paper, the words may be completely blurred. 3D OCR 
evaluates the grayscale information of that extra inked area and decides 
that compared to the darkness of most of the character, the blurred area is 
probably a smudge. It the evaluates only the relevant parts of the character 
for recognition.
True Page™
OmniPage Professional allows you to maintain the page layout of your 
documents – with both text and images – throughout the recognition 
process in their original full-page formats. This feature is called True Page 
recognition.
When you select the True Page option, all the page attributes are 
displayed, complete with columns, typestyles, font characteristics, and 
graphics as they appeared on the original page. See Chapter 7, How to Use 
True Page, for detailed information.
