Languages Supported in SimpleSoftware OCR Engines

Monday, 02 December 2019 by Simple Software

SimpleSoftware OCR engines are using two different systems for language support. In the end languages supported by your OCR is based on your version of SimpleIndex installed, any addons (SimpleIndex Server, SimpleCoversheet, and so on) do not add any additional language support.

All SimpleSoftware products have Tesseract 3.02 OCR languages support. You can learn more about it and download additional language libraries HERE. And you can check and add more OCR languages libraries supported with Tesseract on your station here:

C:\Program Files (x86)\SimpleIndex\Tesseract\v3.02\tessdata

SimpleIndex Pro and SimpleIndex OCR are using FineReader engine. It has one of the largest libraries of supported OCR languages. You can check OCR languages supported with FineReader on your station here:

What is the point of SimpleQC?

Wednesday, 28 February 2018 by dwilder

SimpleQC is now SimpleView with many enhancements. In a nutshell it is designed to let you quickly browse folders containing multi-page TIFF or PDF documents. The two main uses for this are:

1 Review scanned documents for Quality Control

Occasionally a scanned document will be too light or too dark to be read. This can happen quite often with some types of paper. Use SimpleView to find these pages quickly and rescan them. You can also correct page order, rotation, skew, etc.

2 Use as a document viewer

SimpleIndex and other scanning applications create folders and files on your hard drive or network to store documents. Use SimpleView to quickly browse image thumbnails by folder and filename. Auto-rotate, enhance and OCR images as needed.

SimpleView is different from other thumbnail viewers because:

-It loads multi-page TIFF files very quickly

-It displays thumbnails for files as well as pages within multi-page files on the same screen

-It has many functions for document QC such as auto-selecting even and odd pages or files for rotation, rescan pages

-It displays thumbnails for PDF files and displays them in the Acrobat viewer

-With Acrobat Standard or Pro you can enable editing & signing of PDF files

-Viewing of office documents and electronic formats are also available

Can OCR text be saved to Office, Text, HTML or other formats?

Wednesday, 28 February 2018 by dwilder

Yes.  On the OCR step of the Job Settings Wizard you can select the text output format need in the “Full-page OCR file type” drop down. By default it is set to PDF, but can be changed to Text (txt), Word (docx), Rich Text (rtf), Open Office (odt), Excel (xlsx), PowerPoint (pptx), ePub Zip (epub), FictionBook (fb2), HTML (htm), XML (xml) or Alto XML (alto.xml).

If the output file type is set to PDF, OCR text will be embedded as hidden text in the PDF file.
