Barcode recognition (settings)

You can access the barcode settings with this icon in the barcode options for the image menu of the editing mask.

All settings here refer to the technical recognition process of barcodes. Test the best setting with your documents and save it in the current scan profile.

The logical evaluation of the recognized barcode, e.g. as index values, and the further editing in the archiving process are described in the chapter Document and barcode options.

Start with the default settings and change them only if needed.

Figure: Barcode settings

The following settings are available:

Settings
Optimize barcode scanning	Quality (default setting) Speed: Select this setting if the barcode recognition is too slow. This may result in a worse recognition rate.
Despeckle	None (default) Normal or maximum: Select these settings if the quality of the paper document is very poor (e.g. in case of faint or repeated copies)
Correct image sharpness	Optimizes blurry templates. Select this option if the originals are compressed or elongated or if they have smudged areas.
Rotation	The barcode recognition software already automatically aligns originals that were fed in at an angle. If a value (in degrees) is specified here, the software straightens the scanned image up to this limit. If the value is exceeded, the software will not perform any further alignment.
Remove lines	Removes horizontal or vertical lines within the barcode area that are not part of the barcode. If this option is activated, the barcode recognition slows down.
OK	Save the applied settings with OK.
Default	With Default, you can reset the entries to the default values (see fig. above).
Cancel	Cancel lets you exit the dialog without saving the entries.
