Customize OCR for Your Needs

The PrizmDoc OCR REST API offers a variety of ways to improve overall recognition results and individual character recognition.

To optimize character recognition, you can:

• Perform segmentation
• Specify predefined character sets for recognition
• Reject characters when their recognition fails
• Specify minimum acceptable confidence values

To improve recognition results, you can:

• Configure expected recognition results by specifying the expected type of data
• Select the expected language(s) being recognized
• Report alternate character results and associated confidence values
• Define recognition zones of interest to avoid recognizing unusable data

Licensing

The OCR add-on for PrizmDoc requires an online metered license. Without a valid metered license, PrizmDoc will function in a limited evaluation mode. The OCR add-on will also function in Evaluation mode, allowing you to try it before you buy it.
