Re: Re: OCR Code

Hi Allolex, for example, I want to convert below number into OCR font. 000000378374949304847374074740008484 We can print PDF file and pass that printed page through OCR reader then it will read this number. Let me know you need anything else. Thanks Tejas

(Why did someone waste her/his time downvoting the parent? His reply was fine.) I think I get it now. sauoq seems to have gotten right to the heart of the matter. You're generating a PDF file that is supposed to have a code in a special font designed to be read by OCR systems. (I parsed your mentioning of "OCR code" as "the source code for a program that does OCR".) I guess it's just a question of you finding out how to change the font in your output, really. Unfortunately, I don't know anything about that, but I felt you deserved at least a response. -- Allolex	[reply] [d/l]
