Abstract

Optical character recognition in which registration of a stored, character image is changed from, for example, center to lower left depending on the individual character template or equivalent description against which the image is being compared. Accuracy is improved because the registration form used is one known to provide the greatest elements distinguishing the character of the template from the closest other character which might be presented.
