Features & Benefits

A number of key features make this award-winning tool the best of its kind. Its Adaptive Document Recognition Technology analyzes the entire document and reproduces an editable and formatable file in a precise manner, retaining the original layout, style and formatting attributes. An enhanced Camera OCR (Optical Character Recognition) automatically identifies digital camera images and adjusts image distortion for best OCR results. The product comes with a QuickTasks automation to make your conversion not only easy, but fast and accurate.

The software extracts text from a large number of sources with impressive results, and should a section of text in a margin or in a box be accidentally incorporated into the main body, it can be easily separated. The application also has dictionaries for 36 languages to provide the best possible OCR and PDF conversion results in addition to recognizing multilingual documents written in up to three different languages.

Even when working with a relatively low-resolution photograph, the text recognition engine is still fast and extremely accurate with only a few errors creeping in here and there, and rarely at that. The ScreenReader tool makes it possible to extract text from sources that would otherwise be impossible to copy from.

AABBY FineReader’s unmatched accuracy and conversion capabilities eliminate retyping and reformatting in a big way and its one-click automated tasks let you do more in fewer steps.

The Camera OCR function allows you to take photos of documents which can then be converted to text. This comes in handy when encountering documents on the go, or when you want to scan large bound documents.

Options of retrieving text from a variety of sources and processing it into an editable format may be limited, but not if you have AABBY FineReader. Scanners are only able to give an image output which is not editable. FineReader allows you to capturetext from banners, posters and timetables and then extract the captured information. The process of data conversion takes little time and the final document looks just like the original.
