Key Features
Excellent Recognition Accuracy and Layout Retention
The world leader in accuracy has just become even more accurate! ABBYY FineReader 7.0 is 25-40%* more accurate than its predecessor. It can easily recognize and replicate even difficult documents of poor print quality or with complex layouts, including multicolumn documents with pictures, wrap-around text, varying fonts, color backgrounds, bullets, and tables.
XML Output and Integration with Microsoft Office Word 2003
ABBYY FineReader can easily convert paper documents to XML using Microsoft Word XML schema, widely anticipated to be an emerging standard for file use. This allows users to take advantage of the XML file format which can be manipulated and searched using any program that can process industry standard XML.
Through XML support, FineReader 7.0 also streamlines the process of recognizing and editing word documents. When exporting documents to Microsoft Office Word 2003, FineReader automatically opens an embedded view of the original document, allowing users to edit and view their original documents at the same time, thus eliminating the need to switch between the two applications.
PDF Input/Output Support
With ABBYY FineReader you can open, recognize and edit PDF files and save them in any of the supported formats or export the data to your favorite application. All PDF files created in FineReader are optimized for publishing on the Web. FineReader supports output in any of the four standard PDF file formats (text and pictures only, text over image, text under image, and image only) with additional controls such as whether or not to replace suspect words with their images. This gives users six PDF saving options.

WYSIWIG Text Editor
The multicolumn WYSIWYG text editor allows you to view the full layout of the scanned document during editing, so that you can quickly check the file before exporting it.
Image Splitting Tool
The image splitting tool allows you to split the image into several areas and save each area as a separate page. This mode is particularly handy for recognizing business cards scanned on one page, books, and PowerPoint handouts.
Output to Microsoft PowerPoint

Full-Text Searches with Morphology Support
Any batch created in ABBYY FineReader can be used as a small database with full-text search capabilities. You can search for words in all their grammatical forms. This feature is available for the 34 languages that have dictionary support.
