Creating an OCR Language

When performing OCR on a document, ABBYY FineReader uses some information about the
language of the document (this language is to be selected from the Document Languages drop
down list in the main window). If there are too many unusual abbreviations or words in the text,
the program may fail to recognize them correctly. If this is the case, you may wish to create your
own recognition language for this document.
1. On the Tools menu, click Language Editor…
2. In the Language Editor dialog box, click New
3. In the New Language or Group dialog box, select Create a new language based on an
existing one and from the dropdown list below, select the desired language. Click OK.
4. In the Language Properties dialog box, specify the properties of the new OCR language.
a. Language name Type a name for your OCR language in this field.
b. Source languageThe language on which your new OCR language will be based.
(Displays the language you selected in the New Language or Group dialog box. Click the
arrow to the right to select a different language.)
c. Alphabet Lists the characters of the alphabet of the source language. Click
to add or
remove characters.

document and to check the recognized text. The following options are available:

capitalizations: 1) lowercase only, 2) uppercase only, 3) first letter
