Instructions for Generating the Font Pattern Database

This functionality is supported only if you are using the Classic Agent.

Use the Exgui.exe utility to generate the pattern file SgOcrPattern.pat. The text conversion is performed using Windows fonts. Before conversion, the required fonts must be processed into the pattern file. Before generating the pattern file, the required fonts, font sizes, and font styles must be configured in the Textract.ini file. Open Textract.ini and adjust the following settings in the [Recognition] section:
Include1
List of fonts that are to be converted.
Exclude
List of fonts that are not to be converted.
Italic
1 - Convert italic characters; 0 - Exclude italic characters.
Bold
1 - Convert bold characters; 0 - Exclude bold characters.
Underlined
1 - Convert underlined characters; 0 - Exclude underlined characters.
Sizes
Range of font sizes, <min>-<max>, that are to be converted.

Once Textract.ini has been configured, open the Exgui.exe application and click Build font pattern database. When the Textract - Build Font Base dialog box opens, click OK and wait for the pattern file to be generated. The file name and path will be saved based on the Database Path setting in the [Options] section of the textract.ini file.
