Q I am having problems scanning text with my new Brother
DCP-115C
multifunction
device.
The scan of the page is always saved as a pdf or tiff file and is far larger
than the text document should be. There are four options when scanning: Image,
OCR, email and file.
A The solution is to use the OCR option. This stands for
optical character recognition and is software that can recognise the shape of
text and convert what is a picture, as far as the computer is concerned, to a
text document.
This particular multifunction device is supplied with OmniPage OCR for this
purpose and this should have been installed when the multifunction device was
set up.
