FineReader Server processes incoming files from a myriad of formats including most image file types, PDF, TIFF, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint, HTML, OpenDocument Text, and more.

Recognizes Barcodes for Separation

Makes document separation much easier by allowing the use of barcodes to separate types of documents. The barcode can be placed either on the image itself or on a separate barcode separator sheet.

Lots of PDF Export Options

FineReader Server was designed with the export of OCR documents to the PDF format. A wide variety of PDF formats are possible including compressed PDF (PDF/A-1a, PDF/A-1b, PDF/A-2u, and PDF/A-3a) as well as the new PDF/UA format.

Automatic Document Type Separation

Automatically separates documents based upon their type through the use of detection of the number of pages, blank page detection, or barcode separator sheets. Rules can also be created through the built in scripting engine to separate document types within a batch.

Integrated with SharePoint

Includes sophisticated integration with Microsoft SharePoint Server to provide features such as automatically checking out non-searchable documents from a library and then checking in a new, OCR text searchable version. Also provides basic functions such as checking in documents being sent through OCR.

Unique XML Ticket Processing Function and COM API

Innovative XML ticket function provides a way to process document batches based upon an “CML ticket” included along with the document image itself. This provides a way to send unique OCR processing paramaters to FineReader Server for each document which has an XML ticket included. A COM and Web Services API is also available to perform more complex integration functions. Read more about the Web Services API.

Easy to Use for Non-Technical Employees

The graphical capture processing wizard is easy to use even for non-technical workers. Simply select the document source, image pre-processing settings, set processing parameters (indexing, verification) and export settings.
