SimpleIndex 10.2 is a major update with a minor release number.
SimpleIndex 11 has great new features like [[ICR]] [[Handprint Recognition]], [[Email Import]], and new [[Scanning]], [[Cloud OCR]], and [[Barcode]] recognition engines.


By implementing features like [[ICR]] that are enabled by the updated [[FineReader]] engine included in the [[SimpleIndex 10]], 10.2 gives you a major update worth of new features for free to anyone with a SimpleIndex 10 license, regardless of [[maintenance]].
It also has significant performance improvements, particularly with very large documents and batches. [[Importing]] batches with thousands of pages and [[Exporting]] [[PDF]] files with over 500 pages are faster by several orders of magnitude. For example, 3,000 page PDF file that used to take 30 minutes or more to create can now be exported in about 30 seconds!

SimpleIndex 11 has great new features like ICR Handprint Recognition, Email Import, and new Scanning, Cloud OCR, and Barcode recognition engines.

It also has significant performance improvements, particularly with very large documents and batches. Importing batches with thousands of pages and Exporting PDF files with over 500 pages are faster by several orders of magnitude. For example, 3,000 page PDF file that used to take 30 minutes or more to create can now be exported in about 30 seconds!

Here is the full list:
