Hi Sena_Scott,
Starting with your question about how to set the min and max values for a threshold. This is kind of a trial and error. What values you select is going to depend on your image. My best recommendation is to try different values and see what seems to work best.
As for how to use the OCR I am going to assume you don’t have a charter set file. You will first select the “New Character Set File.” In the following menu you will highlight the region of interest (ROI) you would like to recognize. The program will then recognize the chanters but you must tell it what they are. On the right side of the screen there is a box called Training. Select “Train All Characters” from the list. You can then type what the charters are in to the “Correct String” dialog box. Click train and then you can save the file. This should set your OCR up correctly.
When you run the program does it seem do what you want it to or not? Does it give you an error or simply not work. Your best bet is to test it and see how it responds.
Thanks,
Adam H
