The MICR OCR Plug-In will read the MICR line on a check using an Optical Character Recognition engine. This allows you to use any scanner to read checks, even if it doesn't have a MICR reader.
It can also be used to verify or correct the MICR data read by the MICR reader on a check scanner.
Here are the options for the PST MICR OCR Plug-In v1.0
will replace misread characters from the MICR that was read by the check scanner with characters read by the OCR engine.
For example if the scanner read 12?4 and the OCR engine read 1234, then the repaired MICR will be
1234.
will compare the characters read by the check scanner with the MICR read by the OCR engine. The only characters returned will be the ones read the same by both methods.
For example if the scanner read 1234 and OCR read 12?4 then the MICR saved would be 12?4.
is the same as the repair option above except the fields are parsed before the repair
is the same as the validate option above except the fields are parsed before the validation occurs.
The OCR engine returns a confidence value of the read. You can set the minimum confidence that will be accepted. Value can be 1 to 5.
This option will look for MICR on the bottom first and then the top of the document. This will read MICR on items run upside down.
