whether the language you selected is valid.
Go to [Settings] [ [Text Recognition] and
check the language set in the right panel.
The OCR function restarts whenever the

range is modified in edit mode.

Notes on Scanning
Make sure to fix a document or photo so that it
does not move while scanning. If the document
or photo moves with the mouse scanner, the
scanner may be unable to calibrate the image.
Please do not click or typing of other Input
device while scanning.
If you move the mouse scanner too fast, some
areas may not be scanned and result in empty
spots. Go back to the empty spots and move the
mouse scanner slowly to re-scan the areas.
If the scanned image appears distorted or
broken, stop moving the mouse scanner
briefly and then the image will be calibrated
automatically. If the image still appears distorted
or broken, re-scan the corresponding area to
calibrate the image manually.
If you scan a large image, the image will be
automatically reduced. If you need to check
whether it is scanned properly, roll the mouse
scanner wheel up/down to zoom in/out the
image.
If the mouse scanner is placed away from a
document or photo, the scanning will pause.
To resume scanning, place the mouse scanner
where the scanning is paused and move it left/
right/up/down.
If you pause scanning in a blank area with no
text or image, the scanner is not able to resume
the operation and stops scanning. The edit menu
appears.
