Abstract is: ABBYY FineReader PDF is an optical character recognition (OCR) application developed by ABBYY, with support for PDF file editing since v15. The program runs under Microsoft Windows 7 or later, and (without PDF editing) Apple macOS 10.12 Sierra or later. The first version was released in 1993. The program allows the conversion of image documents (photos, scans, PDF files) and screen captures into editable file formats, including Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint, Rich Text Format, HTML, PDF/A, searchable PDF, CSV and txt (plain text) files. From version 11 files can be saved in the DjVu format. Version 15 supports recognition of text in 192 languages and has a built-in spell check for 48 of them. FineReader recognizes new characters by: training characters so that they are added to the recognition alphabet; selecting additional characters from a list and adding them to the alphabet of a selected language (for example, adding certain Icelandic characters to a German alphabet for a German text describing Iceland); and adding domain-specific vocabulary to the FineReader’s built-in lexicon. The program also allows users to compare documents, add annotations and comments, and schedule batch processing. As of 2015, there were more than 20 million users of ABBYY FineReader worldwide.Based on FineReader optical character recognition, ABBYY licenses the technology to companies including Fujitsu, Panasonic, Xerox, Plustek and Samsung. In February 2020, version 15 of the software was rated "Highest-quality OCR on the market" by PC Magazine.
