Did you know that the latest updates of R:Archive 7.6 and 8.0
include the added feature of "OCR". When turned on (OCR ON),
you can either define the page(s) or page coordinates to
capture the specific data?

. OCR ON enables OCR when saving the scanned document
. OCR_PAGES enables OCR when saving the scanned document
. OCR_REGION left#top#right#bottom specifies the OCR region,
   in pixels

-- Example: 01a (For R:BASE 7.6 for Windows)
PLUGIN RArchive76.RBL vResult +
|OUTPUT_FORMAT PDF +
|OUTPUT_FILE Inv_158256.PDF +
|SCAN_IMAGE_COUNT 1 +
|SHOW_WINDOW ON +
|SHOW_SCANNER_UI ON +
|OPEN_AFTER_SAVE ON +
|OCR ON +
|OCR_PAGES 1,2-4,7
RETURN

-- Example: 01b (For R:BASE Turbo V-8 for Windows)
PLUGIN RArchive80.RBL vResult +
|OUTPUT_FORMAT PDF +
|OUTPUT_FILE Inv_158256.PDF +
|SCAN_IMAGE_COUNT 1 +
|SHOW_WINDOW ON +
|SHOW_SCANNER_UI ON +
|OPEN_AFTER_SAVE ON +
|OCR ON +
|OCR_PAGES 1,2-4,7
RETURN

-- Example: 02a (For R:BASE 7.6 for Windows)
PLUGIN RArchive76.RBL vResult +
|OUTPUT_FORMAT PDF +
|OUTPUT_FILE Inv_158256.PDF +
|SCAN_IMAGE_COUNT 1 +
|SHOW_WINDOW ON +
|SHOW_SCANNER_UI ON +
|OPEN_AFTER_SAVE ON +
|OCR ON +
|OCR_PAGES 1 +
|OCR_REGION 10 20 40 30
RETURN

-- Example: 02b (For R:BASE Turbo V-8 for Windows)
PLUGIN RArchive80.RBL vResult +
|OUTPUT_FORMAT PDF +
|OUTPUT_FILE Inv_158256.PDF +
|SCAN_IMAGE_COUNT 1 +
|SHOW_WINDOW ON +
|SHOW_SCANNER_UI ON +
|OPEN_AFTER_SAVE ON +
|OCR ON +
|OCR_PAGES 1 +
|OCR_REGION 10 20 40 30
RETURN

The captured data then can be used to INSERT a row, UPDATE
the existing data in a row, or can be global variable(s) to
PRINT a custom report as a pre-printed form or "Page Style"
report.
