OCR and the Challenge of AP Scanning
Statistics about OCR (Optical Character Recognition)• Accuracy is not actually 95%+
— An OCR engine will read 95% of the indexed characters (not documents)
— An OCR engine that is 95% accurate is used on a 9-digit field, so the true accuracy is 69.8% (95% to the 9th power). OCR is only as good as print and scan quality
• DPI is increased, increasing your storage size• Barcode accuracy is 99.9% accurate.
