GdPicture.NET OCR Engine: Improvements and New Features
MURET, France, Oct. 30, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Enhancement of the OCR engine
-- Dramatically reduced average processing time. The engine may be up to
20x faster on very complex documents.
-- Better text writing direction and orientation detection.
-- Improved detection in bitmap with non-uniform backgrounds.
-- Dramatically enhanced PDF-OCR generation.
Integration of external engines
Since version 14.1.39, it is possible to link any external OCR engine to a GdPicture.NET application during PDF/OCR generation.
A tutorial is available in the documentation.
A few facts about the GdPicture.NET OCR engine
-- 130 languages are recognized.
-- Thanks to the research work made for building the GdPicture.NET MRC
compression engine, the adaptive pre-processing and pre-segmentation
phases leverage subsequent OCR accuracy and speed.
-- The post-processing phase allows an excellent reprocessing of
false-positive results, thanks to many years of experimentation on
millions of documents.
-- The Tesseract-based OCR engine has been modified to be continuously
optimized to match the performances (and often exceeds them on complex
documents) of established competitors.
-- GdPicture.NET OCR includes multiple of its own segmentation engines.
