Language Support
Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
- OCR technology for 198 languages. See The Full List of Supported Languages
- 54 languages have dictionary/morphology support
- Recognition of multilingual documents
- Recognition of dot-matrix documents — FineReader Engine recognizes printed dot matrix texts of many types. It has been trained using several thousand samples produced by a variety of printers including dot matrix, daisy wheel, chain and band printers, as well as using draft and Near Letter Quality (NLQ) printing modes.
- Recognition of typewritten documents
- Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) character recognition
- Thai and Hebrew OCR
- Recognition of OCR-A, OCR-B, MICR (E13B) and CMC7
- FineReader XIX – a special OCR module for digitizing old documents
“FineReader XIX” is an OCR module designed specifically for digitizing and archiving old documents, books and newspapers published in the XVII-XX centuries, many of which are rare and unique. Stored in the historical archives of libraries and government organizations, they are national heritage that must be preserved. FineReader XIX provides a unique capability to recognize texts published in the period from 1600 till 1937 in English, French, German, Italian and Spanish. It supports recognition of old fonts such as Fraktur, Schwabacher and the majority of Gothic fonts.
Recognition modes
With the Engine's pre-defined processing modes, developers have the ability to quickly set up and tune the processing speed and accuracy in a way which is the most appropriate for their needs. In addition to the default processing mode, both OCR and ICR recognition can be performed in fast and balanced recognition modes:
- Fast recognition mode
It is designed for high-volume document processing and for the cases when speed is of primary importance. This mode increases processing speed by 200-250% making the technology ideal for using in content management (CMS), document management (DMS) and archiving systems. - Balanced recognition mode
It helps to establish an optimal balance between the recognition speed and accuracy.
Pattern Training
In the vast majority of cases FineReader Engine can successfully read texts without prior training. However, in such cases as recognition of decorative or outlined fonts or bulk input of low print quality documents, preliminary pattern training will prove useful.
The OCR SDK allows you to create and use user patterns or import them from the ABBYY FineReader desktop application (Professional or Corporate Edition). FineReader Engine is flexible and applicable to build up an application of any architecture, either it is a client workstation or a server-based solution.
