Overview

ABBYY Recognition Server 3.0 is the ideal choice for organizations that are looking for an efficient automated OCR and

document capture solution. This robust, powerful yet simple server-based solution is designed for mid- to high-volume

document processing across large departments and enterprises. It can be either deployed as a standalone program or

integrated with a third-party system such as DMS, RMS, and electronic archiving system.

Where to Use

Creation of Searchable Archives and Digital Libraries

With its highly scalable distributed architecture, ABBYY Recognition Server is very efficient in high-volume OCR and document

conversion.

The main components of ABBYY Recognition Server 3.0 include Server Manager, a central unit designed for system

management, and Processing Stations, which perform OCR and document conversion. One Server Manager can control a

virtually unlimited number of Processing Stations connected to it. It effectively distributes all recognition and conversion tasks

among the Processing Stations and CPUs, balancing the workload across the system resources. By connecting dozens of

Processing Stations to the server, you can increase the throughput to several hundred pages per minute.

ABBYY Recognition Server 3.0 can save documents in archive-friendly formats, such as TIFF, XML and PDF. PDF files created

by the program comply with the PDF/A standard for long-tem preservation. Advanced MRC compression helps to achieve

significantly smaller file sizes without any visible loss in quality.

ABBYY Recognition Server also offers a range of features aimed at making high-volume document conversion more

productive yet cost-effective:

• Automated Document Conversion

OCR and document conversion are automated and performed on back-end servers. By eliminating user involvement
