OCR Innovation

The server-based OCR service has been part of ABBYY’s OCR product line for many years. In the past, EasyData frequently sold the ABBYY Recognition Server. This product has since been renamed.

ABBYY Recognition Server

The purpose of this name change—ABBYY Recognition Server becoming ABBYY FineReader Server—is to consolidate under the FineReader brand. ABBYY has been delivering OCR technology for many years and has chosen to unify its OCR products under one umbrella.

ABBYY FineReader Server

The renamed OCR server application also receives a major performance and functionality upgrade. The new version features the next generation of ABBYY’s intelligent OCR engine, offering improved barcode recognition and native 64-bit support.

API enhancements in this new version make it easier to connect to servers and services installed in other locations, including Microsoft Azure.

OCR Service Accessibility

The new OCR Server contributes to more effective accessibility and scalability. ABBYY FineReader Server also supports new PDF standards such as PDF/UA and includes intelligent PDF quality detection under the hood.

Additionally, the administration console of the new OCR Server version has been completely redesigned with an intuitive interface. This renewed, user-friendly console allows users to easily start conversion processes without requiring specialized training.

Newly added tools for text editing, indexing, and document assembly provide greater flexibility in document-related workflows.

Server-Based OCR Solution

For organizations, a server-based intelligent OCR service for automated document capture and PDF conversion is a game-changer. This product is specifically designed to simplify large-volume OCR conversions, automatically transforming vast collections of documents into searchable, shareable digital libraries. The service converts scanned and electronic documents into PDF, PDF/A, Microsoft Word, or other formats—ideal for searchability, long-term preservation, collaboration, or further processing—quickly, accurately, and automatically.

With the OCR Server, organizations can make information accessible, searchable, and standardized. The solution helps businesses, BPOs, and system integrators optimize workflows while meeting compliance, collaboration, and long-term archiving goals. It enables cost-efficient processes for converting paper, image-based, or electronic documents into searchable PDFs suitable for archiving or further processing.

Thanks to fast deployment, easy management, and automated workflows, ABBYY FineReader Server accelerates return on investment (ROI).

How Does ABBYY’s Server-Based OCR Technology Work?

ABBYY FineReader Server receives document images from shared network folders, scanners, emails, and Microsoft SharePoint, then automatically converts them into searchable digital formats using optical character recognition (OCR). If needed, users can manually correct text or add metadata to documents.

The resulting digitized files can be stored in multiple storage locations and/or delivered to other applications.
