Simply click on the OCR zone and drag the whole rectangle or any of the green lines as you wish. 66 Chapter 5 - Project setup Deleting the OCR zone You can always delete any OCR zone. Select the OCR zone and right-click to access the context menu. Click Delete Selected Barcode or OCR Zone. Setting barcode properties Once a barcode has been located on a document template, you can define its properties (size, type, name, etc. ). You can also tell the software whether it must be used as separator for the batches/documents, if it must be used to create attachments, etc. To set the barcode properties: · Once you have drawn your barcode on the template image, IRISPowerscan attempts to read the barcode in the zone and automatically displays the Barcode Zone Properties window. (Alternatively, select the barcode zone and click on Barcode from the toolbar). zone and OCR properties Select or fill in the required options in the Barcode Zone Properties window. Click OK to confirm, then set the general barcode properties (see: Scanning, Barcode/OCR, General barcode and OCR properties). 67 IRISPowerscanTM ­ User Guide Label: name of the barcode*. This name identifies the barcode and, if the barcode is used as an index field, it will appear in the Index Setup as BC_[Label] (see: Indexing, Defining index fields). (*) The label will appear in the top left corner of the barcode zone (in red) by clicking on on the Barcode and OCR Setup window toolbar). Keep barcodes with mask: give the barcode a mask to make sure that only barcodes with that mask are retained for the defined zone. For example, a mask of A(8) will retain a barcode value of up to, but not exceeding, eight alphabetic characters ("Surgery" will be retained - "Admission" will not be retained). See: Project setup, Scanning, Barcode/OCR, Setting a mask syntax. Minimum length: indicate the minimum number of characters to be contained in the barcode. If the barcode does not contain the minimum number, it will not be returned by the software. Properties Size: if the barcode has a fixed width and height, enter these values in the Barcode width and Barcode height fields. Making an entry in one or both of these fields increases the performance of barcode reading. If one of the dimensions is variable, enter "O". Position: indicate the position of the barcode on the template image. 68 Chapter 5 - Project setup Anywhere: if the barcode can appear anywhere on the image (the rectangle around the barcode will become blue). Zone: if the barcode is always positioned at the same place (the position is indicated by drawing the barcode on the template image (see: Project setup, Scanning, Barcode/OCR, Defining barcodes). Alternatively search on 180° rotated images (only in case the Zone option is selected): tick this option to prevent barcode read failure in case a page is scanned upside down. If the barcode reading fails on a page, the software will thus look for the zone after rotating the image by 180 degrees. Rotate based on barcode: tick this option to rotate all the pages of the document in the same manner as the lead page containing the barcode zone.
