An adjustment method of a machine-readable form model and a filled form
scanned image thereof in the presence of distortion comprising model form
free of distortion, image form, containing distortion, obtained by
optical input device from paper media. One embodiment of the method
comprises the steps of assigning of one of the forms as changeable,
marking on the form regions containing distortion, computing the
consolidated distortion correction factor of the spatial parameters for
the said changeable form, parameters correction on the base of the said
consolidated factor. Another embodiment of the method setting the
correspondence between identical objects of image form and model form is
followed by steps of computing distortion correction factors of the
spatial parameters for each object of selected level, spatial parameters
correction of the changeable form, on the base of the said factors,
affecting objects of the same and lower identification reliability
levels.
