Two Different Scanning Methods

Text Cloner Pro now has two different scanning methods: high-speed and high-detailed scanning. Text Cloner Pro can make even the inexpensive scanner three times faster.

Switching between the two scanning modes is just a matter of which key to press—F5 or F6. Now your low-cost scanner can be fast. Text Cloner Pro was tested with a portable Canon LIDE 20 scanner, and the low-end $600 Dell laptop, running Window-Eyes. Text Cloner Pro was able to scan and recognize five pages a minute with 99-percent accuracy. For professional or academic requirements, getting information into the computer so that it can read it in an expedient fashion is critical for success. The two different default-scanning modes make it so you rarely have to make menu changes while scanning … and less time scanning means more time reading.

When using high-speed mode, Text Cloner Pro is only looking for text. If there are images or tables, it will ignore them. The high-speed mode has three different scanning methods; these methods tell the computer what kind of document you are scanning. By providing this information up front, the process for loading and scanning is faster. For the high-detailed scanning, the computer looks at every part of the document and will try to reproduce the tables and include the graphics found in the original. This takes time, so if you don't need to have images or tables scanned, you will find that you can reduce the time waiting for text to appear on your screen by 66 percent by choosing the high-speed mode. Spend less time waiting and more time reading!

It will automatically de-hyphenate words to ensure smooth reading by screen readers. Retains font type and size. It will, however, ignore pictures and will not reproduce tables.

It is recommended that you use high-detailed scanning for documents with watermarks, colored backgrounds, or very complicated layouts.

Colored Backgrounds: Text is often printed on different colored backgrounds. This is not a problem for Text Cloner Pro. You can now read text printed on virtually any color background including dark green and blue.
