[Convert to B&W and Prioritize Recognition] is effective for outline characters or characters in pale colors, as well as characters laid out on a background image. However, it may take more time in OCR-processing than [Convert to B&W and prioritize speed].
The image to be OCRed is scanned in color mode if you select [Perform OCR processing in color], and the scanned image is output in color if output format is set to [RTF (*.rtf)], [Excel (*.xlsx)], or [Word (*.docx)].
The default is [Convert to B&W and prioritize speed].
