Predefined Languages in ABBYY FlexiCapture SDK

Here is the list of internal names of the predefined languages that are supported in ABBYY FlexiCapture SDK. Availability of this or that predefined recognition language depends on the availability of the corresponding modules among ABBYY FlexiCapture SDK files. See the Installation section to know which recognition languages correspond to which ABBYY FlexiCapture SDK modules.

ABBYY FlexiCapture SDK provides core recognition languages for OCR and ICR with full built-in dictionary support. Some recognition languages are available only for OCR, or do not have full built-in dictionary support. See details in the table below.

ABBYY FlexiCapture SDK additionally provides a set of specific recognition languages. These languages contain special language units (e.g. addresses, date and time, human names, etc.). Such languages can be used for field recognition. See the list of special predefined languages for more information.
