Nuxeo OCR?

Soni_ — Sat, 19 Nov 2011 17:38:43 GMT

Hi, i'm new with Nuxeo and similars..

I want to scan a large bill with a professional machine and I would like the content is indexed. To do this, as I read it is necessary to use an OCR with Nuxeo.

So when I add a document to Nuxeo, will run a script / command that will call the correct OCR for indexing content.

My question is, what OCR recommend?

thanks

You can try to install this:

https://github.com/nuxeo/nuxeo-platform-ocr

I ve installed this module and is working nice! It is a plugin that uses Tesseract OCR

You can also have a look at [Ephesoft][1] but this is more than simple OCR There is an integration within Nuxeo based on CMIS connectivity [http://www.nuxeo.com/en/products/integration/ephesoft-capture][2]

Hi, Can you tell me how I can install Nuxeo with Ephesoft or some place where you document?

Do you know if there are virtual machines made ??with Nuxeo + OCR integration to test?

Thanks

Thanks Roland for the comment.

Tesseract OCR may be installed inside Nuxeo server, so every time an image document is saved inside Nuxeo, the OCR runs and index the document for future searchs without any user interaction. Is there any way to do the same with Ephesoft? If you run your own application I know you can integrate Ephsoft and Nuxeo using CMIS, but, is there any way to configure Nuxeo so every time a document is upload inside certain folder to run Ephsoft and analyze it?

Regards (and excuse me for my bad english)
