When I have tried using the Convenient OCR outside of a PDF document, It
always just sends me down to the next line of text in the document that the

documents, but nothing would work but the PDF image document.

Is it possible to use the convenient OCR commands on an email that has a

[JAWS-Users] Convenient OCR

[Alana Jovanovski]

Hi,

I am using convenient OCR on adobe reader. When I use it with any pdf
document, I find the text runs together and I have a feeling it skips pages
with the most recent document I'm using. Can I fix this? I use the zoom
feature, I have tried it at a maximum of 200% which makes the text separated
somewhat, but I would like it to read more accurately. I have also maximised
the window. I have even pressed control 1.

Thanks.

The S is for screen and the W is for window. Now the only
thing I can figure the difference would be if what you were
performing OCR on was not the size of the entire screen.
Today I used the W for window as I figured it was one of
those install screens which if I remember when I had sight
did not take up the whole screen. I also believe the s takes
les time than the w. Probably if one didn't work I would try
the other. This is just my opinion on what the difference is
and I may be way off.

Nothing else happens.  On this machine I'm running public beta 3.

Hi,

After you hear 'JAWS", you should use the JAWS cursor to go up and down the

JAWS will have a different voice to the OCR text.

Hi

Convenient OCR only seems to speak started and finished if the User
Verbosity mode is set to beginner or intermediate.  When verbosity is set 
to

advanced, JAWS says OCR when you press JAWSKey+space and then   The next
thing it says is JAWS if it found any text.  If it didn't find readable
text, Jaws says nothing in advanced verbosity.

There is a separate download and installer for this.  Download it, run the

Are you saying that after pressing Insert + Space, followed by o, JAWS
does not speak "OCR"?  Then when you hit w, s, or c, it does not
announce "Started", then after a second or two, announce "Finished"?

You're forgetting to tell it what to scan. For instance, after you hit o and
it comes up, hit w to tell it you want to scan the window.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Convenient OCR

Good Morning,

 

I've never been able to make convenient OCR work.  When I hit Insert-Space,
O, S, or any other option, JAWS pauses a few seconds and then says JAWS.
Nothing else happens.  On this machine I'm running public beta 3.

 

I've always had an Internet connection when I installed JAWS 13 public
betas.  I thought it would automatically install the OCR process when it
installed JAWS 13, as long as there was an Internet connection.  

 

Any thoughts or suggestions on what I might be doing wrong?

 

Many thanks.

 

Nancy

Hi

Convenient OCR only seems to speak started and finished if the User
Verbosity mode is set to beginner or intermediate.  When verbosity is set to
advanced, JAWS says OCR when you press JAWSKey+space and then   The next
thing it says is JAWS if it found any text.  If it didn't find readable
text, Jaws says nothing in advanced verbosity.

It sounds like the OmniPage OCR portion did not get installed properly.  
There is a separate download and installer for this.  Download it, run the
installer , and hope it fixes your problem.

Are you saying that after pressing Insert + Space, followed by o, JAWS
does not speak "OCR"?  Then when you hit w, s, or c, it does not
announce "Started", then after a second or two, announce "Finished"?

It does say OCR  after I press O ... but after I press S it does not say
started, and I've never heard it says Finished.

[JAWS-Users] Convenient OCR

Good Morning,

 

I've never been able to make convenient OCR work.  When I hit Insert-Space,
O, S, or any other option, JAWS pauses a few seconds and then says JAWS.
Nothing else happens.  On this machine I'm running public beta 3.

 

I've always had an Internet connection when I installed JAWS 13 public
betas.  I thought it would automatically install the OCR process when it
installed JAWS 13, as long as there was an Internet connection.  

 

Any thoughts or suggestions on what I might be doing wrong?

 

Many thanks.
