ABBYY FineReader Engine 10 for Windows > OCR Stages

Document Scanning and Image Import

ABBYY FineReader Engine can receive images from three types of sources: document scanning, opening from files, or directly from memory:

Document Scanning APIs

TWAIN interface (including ADF support and manual input feeding)
FineReader document scanning UI

With its powerful document scanning software tools, ABBYY FineReader Engine 9.0 enables flexible management of scanning parameters, such as: brightness, colority, resolution, image size, duplex scanning, pause between pages setup and more.

The OCR SDK supports the majority of image formats, including multi-page TIFF and JPEG 2000 (part1), and works with black-and-white, grayscale and color images. It also opens PDF files by converting them into images with Adobe® PDF Library Technology.
