In this section you can find a detailed overview
of ABBYY FineReader 10 features for all its editions - Professional
Edition, Corporate Edition and Site License
Edition.
Recognition and Accuracy:
-
Superior Recognition Accuracy
ABBYY FineReader 10 delivers highest recognition accuracy and
layout retention, even on difficult-to-read and low-quality images such as
faxes and digital photographs. The program allows uses to convert scanned
images, digital photos and PDFs into editable and searchable electronic
documents with literally no retyping and reformatting. In the 10 version,
the overall accuracy has been increased by as much as 35%*, especially on
documents containing tables, legal documents, multilingual documents, and
images from digital cameras.
-
Multilingual Text Recognition
ABBYY continues to lead in the OCR language support. With ABBYY FineReader,
users can process documents in 184 languages including Chinese, Japanese,
Thai, Hebrew, Armenian, Cyrillic, Greek, and Latin. ABBYY FineReader also
reads scripting languages and simple chemical formulas. The text recognition
software includes dictionaries with spell-checking capabilities for 38
languages allowing verification of recognized text directly in the
FineReader Editor.
-
Automatic Language Detection
FineReader cuts an additional step in the OCR process by
automatically detecting the appropriate document recognition language.
-
Text within Graphics
FineReader allows users to manually draw text areas inside the graphics
areas of document images. This feature is useful when users want to output
documents that contain graphics, charts and screenshots into searchable PDFs.
This way, FineReader uses the text zoning to create underlying text for
search-ability.
-
Processing Documents with Signatures,
Company Stamps, and Line Numbering
FineReader 10 automatically identifies the specialized elements and
formatting found typically in legal documents. For example, the program
automatically locates and preserves signatures or company stamps in
contracts and recognizes and reproduces line numbers in pleading documents.
-
Fast Mode Recognition
When processing good quality images with simple layout, a user can use the
Fast Mode Recognition option to increase recognition speed up to 2.5 times*.
-
Intelligent Background Filtering
FineReader’s background filtering system employs dynamic threshold
technology to automatically adjust contrast when converting grayscale and
color document images to black and white prior to OCR recognition. This
feature optimizes recognition even when processing low-contrast images and
documents.
-
Vertical, Colored and Inverted Text
Recognition
ABBYY FineReader is the only text recognition software that reads vertical
text. It recognizes text that is colored or inverted and retains those
attributes in the output document.
-
Barcode Recognition
ABBYY FineReader reads both 1-D and 2-D barcodes. It also offers the option
to treat barcodes as images (default) or recognize a barcode and display its
value. User can change the default setting to allow FineReader automatically
analyze and recognize barcodes.
-
Special Recognition Mode for Dot Matrix
and Type-written Documents
With its special mode for recognizing dot-matrix print and type-written
documents, ABBYY FineReader is useful if a user need to convert legacy
documents. The program allows you to specify document’s “print type” and
applies that type to the entire document, selected blocks, or table cells
for best recognition result.
Custom Dictionaries:
-
Integrated Microsoft Word Custom
Dictionary
As a professional-level text recognition software, ABBYY FineReader enables
users to create their own customized word list for processing industry
specific texts or professional documents.
-
Creation of Morphological User
Dictionaries
FineReader allows users to add words and create custom dictionaries. When
adding new words, FineReader will prompt them to enter additional word forms
that stem from the same root.
Format Retention/Editability:
Key Technology Breakthrough: Adaptive
Document Recognition Technology (ADRT™)
ABBYY’s ADRT, the newest Adaptive Document
Recognition Technology, treats an entire document as a single entity, rather
than the more error prone and time consuming method used by previous generations
of OCR technology which process each page individually. With ADRT, ABBYY
FineReader recognizes not just the text and basic layout, but the logical
structure of a document across multiple pages producing an improvement in layout
retention by up to 32 percent*. ABBYY's ADRT provides:
- Re-creation of Document Logical
Structure and Formatting
ADRT makes converting paper documents, images and PDF files to the
Microsoft® Word format more accurate than ever. The program, by
intelligently “seeing” the document in its entirety, identifies various
parts of document structure such as heading, body text, columns, tables,
graphics, and page numbers. After the processing, documents contain
accurately digitized text, while retaining the document’s logical structure,
layout and formatting.
FineReader produces output documents in native Microsoft Office formatting
elements that are easy to edit and change. It can determine how certain
formatting elements should be treated when sending to Microsoft Word and
Microsoft Excel®. As a result, the headers and footers, page numbering,
footnotes, fonts and styles of the original are retained.
- Text Flow Consistency
With ADRT, ABBYY FineReader maintains even the most complex
layouts, whether single or multi-column. By detecting document formatting
elements and reconstructing them as native Microsoft Office formatting
elements, the software provides truly editable documents with consistent
text flow between pages and columns.
- Retention of Fonts and Font Styles
ADRT enables FineReader to re-create font styles of the original
document. By analyzing the whole document with all its pages at once,
FineReader gathers information about the font styles of the original
document and then accurately re-creates them.
Saves Non-Rectangular Pictures and Text Flow
in Microsoft Word
FineReader recognizes non-rectangular pictures and text flow around pictures,
preserving the original document layout in Microsoft Word.
The software maintains even the most complex layouts, whether single or
multi-column.
Retains Table Structure
FineReader accurately recognizes and recreates true Word- or
Excel-generated tables and spreadsheets including multi-page tables. As a
result, tables created by FineReader are fully editable within Word or Excel.
Pictures within Table Cells
Many magazine articles include tables that use icons or graphics in the header
row/column. With ABBYY FineReader, converting these types of tables is easy -
the program accurately preserves their original look.
Retains Bullets and Numbering
With the new ADRT, FineReader recognizes and reconstructs bullets and numbered
lists with original styles and logic (as native Microsoft Word elements).
Results-Driven™ Interface — Less Clicks, Greater
Efficiency:
The FineReader's Results-Driven interface simplifies
and shortens the recognition process and automatically highlights the best
strategies for optimizing OCR results. The new interface reduces the
number of mouse clicks needed for popular document conversion tasks by
as much as 40 percent*. In FineReader 10, key functions are more easily
accessible at the “top-level” with less need to search through detailed “drop
down menus.” Key functionality is grouped together in special dialog boxes to
make it easier to perform key tasks.
QuickTasks™
ABBYY FineReader 10 interface comes with pre-programmed QuickTasks
for the most common document processing routines such as “Scan to PDF”,
“Scan to Microsoft Word”, or “Convert PDF/ Images to Microsoft Word”.
The FineReader’s new QuickTasks window automatically appears
once the program is launched. QuickTasks can also be launched directly from the
Window’s Start menu. Users can also create customized
QuickTasks by using the Automation Manager
One-click Access within Microsoft Office
FineReader seamlessly integrates with Microsoft Office applications.
From Microsoft Word, Excel and Microsoft Outlook, users can easily scan open and
process images and then open the recognized document in the same application.
Right-Click Access from Windows Explorer
From Windows Explorer, users can use the right mouse button to select images or
PDF files to convert (and send results directly to application, or save as
documents).
QuickPreview™ window makes it
easier to select the pages or documents a user needs when opening files to be
processed. Users now have a visual preview of documents before opening.
QuickTips™
FineReader 10 offers intelligent and interactive tips to guide users
toward improving results throughout the OCR process. Not only will FineReader
identify areas in which accuracy can be enhanced, but it offers “actionable
buttons” such as “re-scan” that lets users quickly take correction measures.
Enhanced Text Editor
A newly enhanced Text Editor allows for easy review while the enhanced editing
toolbar supports quick font and font style adjustments and adds additional
editing capabilities Users can preview in real time and then choose from four
output preferences (exact copy, editable copy, formatted text and plain text).
Easy Image Enhancements
All image pre-processing functions, such as Rotate, Deskew, Crop, and Invert
Image, can be quickly accessed from a single “Edit Image” window. Users can
easily apply changes made to a single image page to all pages of a document with
one click.
Ease-of-Use and Productivity:
Automatic Recognition and Background
Processing
FineReader 10 automatically performs OCR as soon as the document is scanned in
or opened (without the need for users to click “Read”). The default background
processing allows users to start working on the first recognized pages while FineReader continues processing. (Power users have the option to turn this
function off.)
Optimized Performance on Multi-core
Processors
Intelligent algorithms effectively divides document processing steps for
parallel execution for 1.6 times* faster processing on systems with dual core
processors such as Intel and AMD and 3.2 times* faster on systems using
quad-core technology (based on internal ABBYY testing).
