input file formats Pro OCR can read documents saved by other applications in
TIFF, PCX and DCX formats, as well as those documents
saved in its own proprietary TIFF format. See also
PCX and
TIFF.
insertion point The place in a text file where text is inserted or deleted.
Indicated by a blinking vertical bar.
italic text Text with the italic attribute looks like this. See also
text
style.
justification Alignment of text to the left, right, or both margins of a
column or page. Text may be left-justified, right-justified,
center-justified, or fully justified (both left- and right-
justified). Pro OCR preserves justification.
kerning A measure of the spacing between characters. In tightly
kerned text, the letters are very close together, which can
cause letters to touch when the page is scanned. See also
touching characters.
landscape orientation When you hold a page of text to read it, it is in landscape
orientation when the page is wider than it is tall. Compare
with
portrait orientation.
layout The relative position of elements on a page, such as margins,
columns, graphics, titles and sections.
layout analysis error The result of an OCR product’s inability to correctly organize
recognized text into words, lines and paragraphs on the page.
There are two kinds of common layout analysis errors—
incorrectly interpreting the flow of text on a page and
incorrectly grouping or separating side-by-side paragraphs.
Layout analysis errors can be more troublesome than
character identification errors, particularly with documents
having complex layouts. Compare with
character
identification error.
