The OCR software converts a scanned document into a file you can edit with a word processor. You can use the OCR software directly, or you can configure the image editor scanner button. Using the Button Manager, reprogram the image editor button to a program like WordPad. Now place your document on the scanner and press the button. Your document will be scanned, converted to text using the OCR software, and loaded into your selected word processing program. Additional software The Compaq S200 includes additional scanning and image editing software. This software was selected to help you maximize the use of your scanner. Use the software to explore the many capabilities of your new scanner. Getting more from your scanner Large scan areas and/or resolutions above 300 DPI require additional memory and disk space, and will take longer to process. To minimize this, use the Preview button first. Then select only the area you need to scan, and don't use a resolution above 300 DPI unless you know you require it. Your scanner is ideally suited for many types of projects. [. . . ] However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
