“ImageGear Professional is a great one-stop shop, suite of imaging functionality. Application developers can now use ImageGear Professional to gain access to an even wider breadth of imaging support, cleanup operations and OCR text recognition than ever before,” said Steve Wilson, Director, Native Core Imaging. “Additional added value includes the ability to automatically redact confidential and sensitive information, such as social security numbers or credit card numbers.”
With ImageGear Professional v17, applications can perform OCR, create smaller searchable PDF files from scanned document images, and automatically compress individual regions of a page to produce an optimized, searchable PDF.
