Enterprise 11: Configure ABBYY for Automation Anywhere
Automation Anywhere supports a specific configuration of the ABBYY OCR engine to capture images.
Note: If you are using the Enterprise Client
Version 11.3.2, the FineReader 12 is installed by default in the Enterprise Client
Version 11.3.2 and does not require separate installation.
Do the following
steps to configure ABBYY for Automation Anywhere: Procedure
- Install ABBYY FineReader engine 11 on the machine.
- Use your license key to activate ABBYY through the ABBYY License Manager.
-
Modify the app.config file available at the
C:\Program Files (x86)\Automation Anywhere\Enterprise\Client\plugins\commands\ocr\ABBYY
.
If you are using FineReader 12:
The ABBYY OCR engine uses a set of predefined parameters with their corresponding
default values. To optimize the value of the extracted text, change the values of these
parameters available in the ABBYY_Parameters.ini file. You can uncomment the available
parameters in the file or add new parameters and their values that are supported by ABBYY.
Any changes you make in this file are reflected in all the instances where OCR is used in
Automation Anywhere.- Specify the location of the ABBYY parameters file in the following tag:
add key ="ProfilePath" value="LOCATION OF THE ABBYY_Parameters.ini FILE"/
-
Ensure that you have the Modify and Write permissions for
the
C:\Program Files (x86)\Automation Anywhere\Enterprise\Client\plugins\commands\ocr\ABBYY
folder.
