August 14, 2013

Accusoft announced version 21 of its ImageGear for .NET software development kit (SDK) in editions for .NET 32-bit and 64-bit, Winforms, ASP.NET and WPF environments.

The solution allows developers to add capabilities such as image editing, scanning, file compression, bar code reading and optical character recognition (OCR), annotation, and printing to their applications. Applications built with ImageGear for .NET offer viewing and image-editing tools for more than 100 different image file types, including Microsoft Office files, TIF, JPEG, PDF, CAD and more. The SDK can also be used to enable cloud-based scanning services.

Version 21 builds on the optical character recognition (OCR) capabilities in the DLL 32-bit edition. The accuracy of OCR results has been improved, with a 48 percent increase in accuracy for PDF files in Western languages and a 69 increase for Asian languages.
