Scanning Guidelines
Scanning Mode
The Pen is in scanning mode when the red light at the tip of
the Pen is blinking. Scanning mode is disabled when you
are not in an application, or when accessing a toolbar
menu.
Scanning Restrictions
The Pen scans and recognizes printed text in a wide range
of languages, font types and point sizes (6-22 points, up to
8mm) and in a variety of colors on contrasting backgrounds
(except red on white, white on red, blue on black and black
on blue).
It does not recognize handwriting, cursive fonts,
mathematical symbols or other profession-specific signs.
Troubleshooting Poor Character Recognition
Poor character recognition may occur for several reasons:
Low quality scanning material.
Scanning settings not set correctly (e.g. Inverse).
Holding the Pen at the wrong scanning angle.
Scanning too fast.
Tips for Good Scanning
To ensure optimum scanning results:
Hold the Pen at the correct scanning angle.
Place the scanning material on a flat surface.
Use good quality scanning material. Note that poorly
photocopied materials may provide bad results.
Do not scan too fast.
