I am currently examining a product called Abbyy Finereader and the possibilities of triggering it from within NAV. Does anyone here have any knowledge of and experience with this product?

Hi Trm,
Well Abbyy Finereader is “just” another scanning and OCR product as I see it. And since it’s able to communicate via XML files then you should not really have any problem integrating it with Navision. But I don’t really have any experince with it.
Erik, it’s not quite so… [;)]
I don’t have experience with FineReader in context to NAV, so I didn’t post anything to this thread, but what I DO know, is that when it appeared 10 (15?) years ago, it was the best OCR. It is of Russian origin, and uses unique recognition algorithms, very fast & capable to “learning”. (Back then I taught it to “read” scanned book printed in 19 century in German Old Gothic font in one weekend). It worked fast even then on 386 CPU - 1 page in 3-5 seconds. Rumours were, that after USSR collapse some smart guys happened to make a commercial product from Russian military technology - soviet spy sattelite’s lenses weren’t very good, so they needed really GOOD recognition software to process the images, and they made it.
Hi Modris,
Thank you, that was actually a very good story!
