Optical character recognition or OCR is the conversion of scanned documents of printed text into editable text file. It is widely used as a form of data entry from some sort of original paper data source, whether faxes, sales receipts, mail, or any kind of scanned documents. It is a common method of digitizing printed texts, documents, sales receipts, mail or any scanned documents so that they can be electronically searched, edited, stored more compactly and displayed online.
In order to produce more accurate results, an OCR Language Pack is available for the Tiff Viewer. The language pack contains the character sets for every major language. The OCR results will be more accurate by using the appropriate language pack for the language the document is written in.
