| Probably you can think of using Java in WMB to acheive this. You have OCR algorithms in Java which can help you in this. Other experts can come up with better suggestions. |

Actually we are having the requirement to convert the hard copy of documents thru OCR and store it in to any sources like DB or file and do the conversion in to INTELLIGENT MANNER. So we are looking the OCR support on WMB.
Share your inputs. |

Hi,
Do I understand your requirement right if I say that you have external system that produces digital images of printed documents. External system sends these data streams to broker (or broker somehow fetch them). Then requirement is to convert them to text and store to some data persistent (database or file)?

Natively WMB has no OCR support. It has support (or the ability for you to develop support) for any of the data formats the OCR data will be in, and supports all of the transport protocols such data is likely to be moved round in. It certainly has the ability to store data in DB or file.
Depending on exactly what you mean by "intelligent manner". If you mean route or manipulate the data based on OCR tags exposed by the scanning software it can do that. If you mean take a scanned bitstream, parse it into text and index it based on keywords then you'll need specialist OCR software to do that which you may or may not be able to invoke from WMB. You may find it easier to invoke the OCR software standalone and have it pass the processed data to WMB for storage.
All depends on what you want, what you have & what you need.
