Adding or editing an OCR server

To add or edit an OCR server:

  1. Enter a Description of the module (up to 4000 characters).
  2. Under Accuracy, indicate your tolerance for speed versus accuracy.
    • Select Fast if you have a high volume of images (the load level on your OCR server will be large), and are concerned about performance. Only large, text- intensive images are sent for extraction; small images and documents that don’t contain much text are not extracted at all. This option enhances performance, but may sacrifice accuracy.
    • Select Accurate if you have a small number of images (the load level on your OCR server will be small). Every textual image in your network is sent to the server for extraction. This affects performance, but provides the most accurate results. If response is inadequate—for example, browsers are timing out on the HTTP channel—change this setting to Fast or Balanced.
    • Select Balanced (default) for a balance between accuracy and speed.
  3. Some languages are included with Forcepoint DLP (see Languages included with Forcepoint DLP (no language pack required))
    • Image analysis can be time consuming. Select fewer languages to optimize performance.
    • False positives (unintended matches) are more likely to occur when multiple languages are selected. For this reason, exercise caution when selecting the languages to enforce.
    • Click OK to save your changes and return to the System Modules page.

The page also displays the module type, name, and FQDN, which cannot be changed.
