Special Predefined Languages in ABBYY FineReader Engine

Predefined languages in ABBYY FineReader Engine 12 for Windows used by special language units in data capture and field-level recognition.

This topic applies to FRE for Windows.

Here is the list of internal names of the special predefined languages that are supported in ABBYY FineReader Engine. These languages contain special language units: addresses, date and time, human names, etc. The special predefined languages can be used for field recognition. Availability of this or that language for handprint recognition depends on the availability of the corresponding ABBYY FineReader Engine files. See the Installation section to know which recognition languages correspond to which ABBYY FineReader Engine files.

• These special predefined languages can be used only if your license supports the Natural for Data Capture module.
• All these languages have the IPredefinedLanguage::LanguageCategory property set to LC_DataType.
