Hello,

We are using the trial verser of Doc Nav v5 (server) and we have setup a document with an anchor and 2 zones. The zones read separate data (Order number) and (Part number).
I have configured the workflow that sees the first zone and names the document accordingly, the second zone (Part Number) is not read very accurately and often there is missing numbers from the string.

I have tried changing the Engine and using the different recognition modules, so far i am using the (OMNIFontMText) and this give me the correct first zone (218854-000 as opposed to 218854.000), but the part number has all sorts of incorrect characters in the naming.

Please could you help?

Thank you

Hi,

the anchor often gives false results if the area taken does not fully respect the initial document with which you created it.

If the zone not is really fixed and for more accurate result in output we always suggest various ways in your case:

Zone OCR + Script to get the correct value
SmartOCR
Script

...... one of these options is usually always the best.

I think is useless chenging more option if your problem is the position, so i think the defailt value in the recognition module is good, just for more info here all the info about the different recognition modules :

And here some more info about the scripting:
