Familiarizing Yourself with the Pen

Scanning

Scanning means to roll the Pen over printed text. When scanning, the optical

head of the Pen scans the surface and creates a bitmap copy of the scanned

text. In all applications the image is processed resulting in the actual letters

by using OCR (Optical Character Recognition).

How to Scan

Following are instructions on how to scan.

For a short movie, demonstrating scanning, please access

http://www.wizcomtech.com/presentations/main_18.html.

Always make sure that:

1. The Pen is on.

2. The Pen Cap has been removed.

3. The Pen is in scanning mode – denoted by the red blinking light at

the tip of the Pen.

If you are Left Handed:

The Pen default is set to right handed scanning. To change it to left handed

scanning:

1. In the Preferences menu, scroll using and until the option

Right-/Left-Handed appears on the screen and press .

2. Scroll to the mode you prefer by using or .

3. Press .

Scanning with the Trainer

The transparent trainer is used for the initial scan practice:

1. Slide the trainer on to the tip of the Pen (instead of the cap) and

press firmly into place.

WizCom InfoScan™ 1.00 User Guide

2. Place the trainer flat and steady to the right of the text you wish to

scan. Notice the 90˚angle that is created. This is the angle you

should preserve whenever scanning, even without the trainer.

3. The text should be positioned at the center of the opening of the

trainer.

4. Glide (‘scan’) the Pen from right to left in a straight line over the text.

The area you scan should start 1cm before the text, and end 1cm

after it. Make sure that the text always appears between the 2 arrows

on the trainer, as if being “fed” into the trainer.

Scanning without the Trainer

Once you get accustomed to scanning, you can scan without the trainer:

1. You can scan from right to left or from left to right.

2. Place the Pen rollers on the page, approx. 1 cm before the beginning of

the text, and roll the Pen over the text until 1 cm after the text.

3. Make sure that the white guidelines at the Pen’s tip pass exactly over the

middle of the scanned text.

Familiarizing Yourself with the Pen

4. Maintain the 90˚Pen angle you have learned when scanning with the

trainer.

5. When rolling over the text, do not press down too hard on the Pen.

6. Don’t scan too quickly.

Scanning Limitations

The Pen allows you to scan printed text (in all other applications, such as the

Notes) 6-22 point font size (up to 8mm) in a wide variety of fonts and in all

colors on contrasting backgrounds except:

• Red on white

• White on red

• Blue on black

• Black on blue

Tips for Good Scanning

If you scan text, but the scanning results on the Pen (i.e., the recognized

text) are not satisfactory, simply try scanning again.

To ensure optimum scanning results:

• When scanning text, always make sure the Scanning Language is set to

the language you are scanning.

o In Notes application: check the scanning language set in the Edit

Menu (to view the Edit Menu press from within an open Notes

file).

o In Scan to PC application: check the scanning language set in the

Settings menu.

• Make sure that the Scanning Options settings (Inverse, Numeric)

match the type of text you are scanning.

• Make sure you are holding the Pen in the correct 90˚angle.

WizCom InfoScan™ 1.00 User Guide

• Place the book/page on a flat surface.

• The page must be light while the text or image you scan must be dark.

• Make sure the printout is of good quality and the page is not creased.

Note that poorly photocopied materials may provide bad results.

• Do not scan too fast.

Editing Text (without Scanning)

In addition to scanning, the Character Bar can be used as input method –

that do not involve scanning.

They can be used to edit scanned text and are also useful to enter text

manually (when words or phrases cannot be scanned because letters are too

large, handwritten, or are on a type of background that the Pen does not

scan, see Scanning Limitations on page 7).

The Character Bar

The Character Bar enables you to enter text manually by overwriting or

inserting characters. The language of the Character Bar is the same as the

current Scanning Language set in the file you are editing.

Accessing the Character Bar

To access the Character Bar:

1. When inside an open Notes file, double click to access the

Character Bar.

The Latin Character Bar

The Hebrew Character Bar

2. The Character Bar opens and the string of text you are editing is

displayed above it. The first letter of the active character sequence is

highlighted on the Character Bar and appears in the string of text where

it will be entered if you select it.

Familiarizing Yourself with the Pen

3. Press or to scroll along the Character Bar. As you move from

the character overwrites the highlighted character – when in overwrite

mode).
