main@jfw.groups.io | Some Questions on new OCR component of Jaws 13

Tom Behler

#9140

Hello, all.

I have heard that Jaws 13 now has an OCR component that can be used to read PDF files that typically have not been accessible to us in the past.

I have two questions relating to this issue:

1.  How do you access the OCR software in Jaws 13 when trying to read a PDF document? Are commands needed, or is it done automatically, once the document is opened?  and

2.  Does the software do anything in terms of reading scanned image PDF files?

Thanks very much!

To use the convenient OCR, you do need to use commands.

First maximize your adobe window, preferably in single page mode.

Next trigger the OCR by typing jaws+space, o, w

You can then use the up and down arrow keys, page up and page down
keys.  Most other navigation does not work (move by word for example).

To OCR the next page you have to manually move adobe to that page and
re-issue the ocr commands, it works on a screen basis not a document
basis.

Tom, using it on scanned pdf's is kind of the whole point.

Press insert+space then O for OCR. Then you decide whether you want the window, screen, or control recognized.

This doesn't take the place of using a dedicated OCR program to deal with these situations, such as K1000, Openbook, Omnipage, Textbridge ( if it's still available), FineReader, etc.

It also works fairly well with certain more or less graphical
installers I've encountered.

Press insert+space then O for OCR. Then you decide whether you want

Tom, using it on scanned pdf's is kind of the whole point.

Press insert+space then O for OCR. Then you decide whether you want
the window, screen, or control recognized.

This doesn't take the place of using a dedicated OCR program to
deal with these situations, such as K1000, Openbook, Omnipage,
Textbridge ( if it's still available), FineReader, etc.
