Hi there,
I was interested in knowing if any of the PDF products (java flavour) have the capability to perform OCR. We often receive pdf files which basically contain images of each of the individual pages and because we are interested in performing text manupulation, we need the text of these images.
So what we are looking for is a tool/library which will perform OCR of the individual pdf pages and extract the text out of this.
Do you have this funcationality?
Kind regards
Patrick Vanbrabant
Hi Patrick,
I would like to share that currently our team is working on OCR functionality for .NET version. A preview version is planned for the end of Q1’2011 or early Q2’2011. However, we’ll be able to share the details regarding the Java version after the preview release of .NET version. Probably, end of Q2’2011 can be expected to have preview of the Java version of this functionality; then again, this will be clear during Q2’2011. You may follow up via our blogs.
We’re sorry for the inconvenience. If you find any further questions, please do let us know.

Is there any update on the OCR functionality preview for .NET? I have a project that could use it.
Hi Corey,
Thank you very much for considering Aspose.
I would like to share with you that our team is currently working on Aspose.OCR; however, I’m afraid, it is not yet ready for the public preview. We’ll be in a better position to say something about this component at the end of March or early April 2011.
We’re sorry for the inconvenience. If you have any further questions, please do let us know.

Any update on a release date for the PDF OCR component for .NET?
Thanks,
Vinny
