CONTENTdm OCR Extension
The CONTENTdm OCR Extension provides the ability for users to integrate optical character recognition (OCR) with collection building. The feature uses ABBYY's award-winning FineReader® OCR software to capture text for addition to searchable metadata fields within CONTENTdm collections. When viewed, items prepared with this feature will display highlighted search terms within the image. Additionally, the OCR Extension provides the option to create a PDF file of an entire compound object for easy printing. Whether applied to select items in a collection, or extensive document archives, the integrated OCR capability makes collection building more efficient.
