The process, step by step
- 1Compare the recognized result with the original note.
- 2Check names, dates, numbers, formulas, and headings.
- 3Correct missing or substituted words.
- 4Read the final text once for meaning.
- 5Continue to organization or summary.
When to recapture instead
If errors appear on most lines, improve the source image and scan again. Correction is best for isolated mistakes, not for rebuilding an unreadable page.
