| New Batch processing |
 |
 |
 |
The operation of batch OCR is basically self-explanatory: you select a folder whose images will be OCRed (including or excluding the subfolders).
The images are loaded into memory one after the other and processed. You`re never prompted to specify a filename for the output: the OCR batch routine simply "mirrors" the names of your image files to name the OCR results. When you recognize image1.tif, the output file will be named named image1.doc (or another extension). You can choose to overwrite the text files with identical names, should these already exist in the output folder.
The text results are placed in the selected output folder. (The subfolders are also "mirrored" in the output folder.)

| Scan and Recognize your business cards |

You can even recognize business cards with Readiris Pro 10 Corporate Edition!
Scan your business cards, recognize them and convert them into an address database. Think of your last exhibition when you came back with an entire stack of business cards and it took your secretary two days to encode them.
The card`s data is extracted automatically from the image and the recognized data is assigned to specific database fields. Readiris Pro 10 Corporate Edition extensively uses a knowledge database, thus acquiring the necessary intelligence to discriminate the first and last name, a city and its state, a telephone and a fax number etc. The resulting data can be sent directly to your contact management software such as Microsoft Outlook (Express), to any vCard compliant application and even to the Palm Desktop software of your PDA.

| User Lexicons for OCR Quality optimization |
 |
 |
 |
You can take the linguistic "feedback" one step further by customizing it: as powerful as the standard lexicons may be, users of Readiris Pro 10Corporate Edition can "boost" the OCR accuracy further by loading user lexicons.
User lexicons are word lists containing any term that does not occur in the "basic", general purpose lexicons. Think for instance of technical, scientific, legal or other company-specific terms!
Readiris Pro 10 Corporate Edition is accompanied by the User Lexicon Editor, a utility designed to create and maintain such user lexicons.

| Recognize Multiple Languages on the Same Page |
 |

 |
Readiris Pro 8 Corporate Edition is more powerful when it comes to reading documents that cover several languages: with that version, you can select a primary language and up to 4 secondary languages.
To read a document where the French translation occurs alongside an English text, you`d select English as main language and French as secondary language. Mind you, you don`t just extend the character set to include the accentuated characters such as ç, é and ù. Both linguistic databases provide linguistic "feedback" to the OCR process, and this allows Readiris to "auto-detect" which language is used where in your document!

| Readiris Pro 8 offers advanced options for the saving of graphics |
 |
 |
 |
Determine the color mode: save your graphics in color-greyscale or as black-and-white images. Select the resolution of the images in the recognized documents: maintain the scan resolution or reduce it.
You can also select the JPEG quality. (JPEG images are used to store color and greyscale graphics in PDF documents, Word and RTF documents etc.)
|
 |
| Improved control over Adobe Acrobat PDF output |
 |
 |
 |
The advanced options for the saving of graphics apply to all graphics - not just the graphic zones included in recognized documents but also the page image you place above the text in an "image-text" Adobe Acrobat PDF file!
As a result, these options allow you to influence the file size of your output documents substantially! Let`s give an example: when you generate "image-text" PDF files with bilevel graphics, you store the images in G4 TIFF compressed files. Save the same scans as color images and you store JPEG files by default with a high (0.8) quality.
