ABBYY brings command line power to its Linux OCR

,----[ Quote ]
| ABBYY Europe, makers of FineReader OCR 
| software, has announced a command line version 
| of its FineReader Engine 8.0. Previous 
| versions have required use of ABBYY's SDK 
| version to create applications which make use 
| of the company's proprietary OCR technology, 
| but the new command line version can be driven 
| from the console or incorporated in shell 
| scripts or web server processing for a simpler 
| integration process. ABBYY have had an OCR 
| offering on Linux since 2003, and brought its 
| FineReader Engine 8.0 SDK to the open source 
| operating system in 2007.
