An optical character recognition (OCR) program such as Xerox TextBridge
analyzes scanned text and converts each character into a form of text a
computer can recognize.
This chapter is a brief introduction to text scanning. You’ll learn
m how to scan a text document for use with the TextBridge application
m how to use the OneScanner Dispatcher application to send a saved text
image to the TextBridge application
Be sure you use the version of TextBridge that comes with your scanner. This
version has an OCR-to-HTML converter so you can save files in HTML
format.
