Question

How to improve the OCR quality applying the tools from the Image Editor in FineReader PDF 15?

Answer

Distorted text lines, skew, noise, and other defects commonly found in scanned images and digital photos can lower the OCR quality. FineReader PDF 15 provides a variety of automated and manual tools for removing these defects. 

If you disabled automatic preprocessing features or want to preprocess specific pages, you can use the Image Editor to manually edit page images.

You can learn more about the tools for image preprocessing in the article: If your document image has defects and OCR accuracy is low.

If after applying the tools of the Image Editor the recognition quality could not be improved, it is recommended to submit a request and provide the original and resulting documents.
