The OCR (Optical Character Recognition) process is run from the PhotoDocs Process Toolbar, but has a sub-toolbar with its own options (show me). These allow you to improve the accuracy of OCR by specifying a language and adjusting the speed.
Select a process marker to configure a setting. OCR can be run from the process toolbar. When the button is selected, OCR runs immediately with the selected settings. When the OCR process marker is selected, OCR can be run as part of a profile with the selected OCR settings included.
