I have noticed something while scanning books in two page mode. Even with
the confidence setting set at a reasonable percentage mine is at 97.5% It
will confidently misrecognize it seems at least one page in the books I am
doing.
I have been noticing this more as I do more books for Bookshare and edit
them before submitting.
Out of the last three books I scanned with two page mode, all of them, had
one to three pages I had to rescan. I have ran across some books where
this doesn't happen but they seem to be pretty rare.
I usually have columns on, two page scanning, and either static or grayscale
threshold. The pages it messes up on are usually text, no pictures.
And the really strange part is these particular pages are easy one's to
recognize.
I do line the book up flush, and it is usually at an optomized setting, but
it kind of bugs me as I have to go back later, and get the book to replace
the pages.
I wonder why it is happening though.
