System Requirements

The following specifications are required to set up and run MyQ OCR Server 2.4.

OCR engines

Within the installation of the server, you can select from three OCR engines:

1. The Tesseract engine is free but it supports only the searchable PDF output format.

2. The ABBYY engine requires a paid license and supports multiple output formats.

3. The AI Invoice Recognition is an OCR service that extracts data from scanned invoices and saves them within the MyQ metadata XML file. The built-in key is provided to run a Rossum service.

Licenses

Licenses are only required for the ABBYY engine. For information on how to purchase them, contact the MyQ Sales department. For activation of the ABBY license, enter the key in MyQ OCR and click Activate or check https://help.abbyy.com/en-us/flexicapture/12/admin_guide/license_activation_manager . The used ports are hard-coded and cannot be changed.
