Users can configure the Black Ice Printer Drivers to open the OCR file automatically after the printing is finished, with the specified text editor. By default, the OCR files will be opened with Notepad text editor. Also, users can configure the OCR to generate the extracted text into memory, to ensure HIPAA compliance.
Applies “Enable Closing filter” to the converted document that may improve OCR results. Enabling this feature will slow down the OCR Process.
Use the “Generate OCR output in memory” option to generate a text file in memory instead of creating a file on the disk. The printer driver creates the file in memory and then passes the data to an application, through the messaging interface, which can save the text output in a database or process the text in memory. To capture the generated output file in memory, one can use the Print to Memory Samples in the Printer Driver Resource Toolkit.
NOTE: When the “Generate OCR output in memory” is enabled, the Open OCR and OCR Output Folder features are not available.
To specify a text editor to open the OCR file after each printing, enable Open OCR with the text editor checkbox and browse the executable file of the text editor.
NOTE: Environment variables cannot be used to specify the Path of the text editor.
