To access the Text Corrector:
Click the Text icon in Image and Layout Editing toolbar.
Note: the Text icon is only available if you have at least one document open in Readiris.
The Text Corrector displays the recognition results of the currently selected page. The original image is shown in the left-hand column and the recognized text in the right-hand column.
Important note: if a page does not contain any Recognition Zones, there will be no text results to display.
To switch to horizontal view, click H. The recognized text is now displayed above the original image.
By default the recognized text is shown in the original layout. If you want to display only flowing text without images, select Flowing text in the drop-down list.
