How to Scan Hebrew Text with Scanmarker Pro

The Scanmarker Pro is a versatile tool that supports multiple languages, including Hebrew. However, when scanning Hebrew text, users may notice that the scanning direction differs from traditional Hebrew reading. Typically, Hebrew is read and written from right to left, but the Scanmarker Pro requires scanning from left to right, similar to how English text is scanned.

This article will guide you through the correct scanning direction for Hebrew text and explain why this adjustment is necessary.

Why Scan Left to Right?

The Scanmarker Pro’s scanning mechanism and text recognition algorithms are optimized for left-to-right scanning. This ensures accurate text capture and processing. By following this direction, the device can correctly interpret the Hebrew characters and provide accurate outputs in your desired format.

How to Scan Hebrew Text

1. Position the Pen: Align the pen at the start of the Hebrew text, which will now be the left side of the line.
2. Scan Left to Right: Slowly and steadily move the pen across the text towards the right.
3. Check the Output: Verify the scanned text on your connected device.
