With this, LEAD can handle recognition of structured and unstructured forms alike, recognizing everything within an image whether it contains a mix of machine-printed text, handwritten text, MICR, MRZ, OMR, graphics, and table zones. This versatile combination of OCR, ICR, and other advanced recognition technologies is critical for companies that need to quickly and accurately process various form types regardless of how the data is formatted.

What can you win?! A TON of prizes. Particularly from LEAD, you have the chance to win a $250 gift card if you can answer the technical question about LEAD that will be presented during the conference. We might have just given you some clues in this post!

Tutorial: Print to Any Type of File Using the Virtual Printer Driver

With a global focus on optimizing paperless office systems, virtual printing solutions have never been in higher demand. A Virtual Printer is a simulated device that simulates a physical printer but instead of printing on paper, it gives access to the file in memory and processes the pages so that users can save it to file or transmit it via other means such as email or to a database. Using the LEADTOOLS Virtual Printer SDK, developers can create virtual printer solutions to host locally or on a networked server to allow multiple users to access it. With LEADTOOLS support for over 150 file formats, users can save these virtual print jobs to just about any format.
