During the training process, any characters the recognition system isn't sure of are displayed in a preview window, in combination with the word in which they were spotted and the result suggested by Readiris.
- Training can substantially enhance the accuracy of the recognition system and is particularly useful when recognizing distorted, defaced forms. Training can also be used to train Readiris on special symbols it is unable to recognize initially, such as mathematical and scientific symbols and dingbats.
