### Adding a New Font / Removing Character Samples

##### Adding a New Font

Include only new characters you plan to use. They will be added based on an existing font.

If you want to add parentheses to a number library so that parentheses will be identified correctly, right-click on the character you want to add, enter it in the Character read as text field, and then click the Add Sample button.

New user fonts are based on existing default fonts. Fonts can be named by clicking the New Font button and entering the new font name in the Font Name text field.

###### Allowable Characters for OCR Fonts

Printable ASCII characters between the decimal code value of 33 (‘!’) and 126 (‘~’) are valid characters that can be added to an OCR font. A typical font usually has up to 40 characters.

##### Removing Character Samples

When you train a new OCR character, multiple samples are added to the font library. If you add a new character accidentally, you can remove all user-trained samples for that character simultaneously.

Hovering over the first character position in a font entry shows the popup list of trained symbols. A red X button will appear at the top of the column of symbols. Pressing this button will remove all the user-trained data from the selected character.
