Question

How to use FineReader Engine on 64-bit Linux OS?

Solution

The 64-bit Linux does not have any difficulties with the launch of the 32-bit application. In order to correctly use the engine, the appropriate library package for the launch of the 32-bit application should be installed. The name of this package depends on the Linux distributive, for example for the Ubuntu Linux it is ia32-libs.

Mainly, the following libraries should be installed on a 64-bit system:

1. ia32-libs, libgomp1 – to run Activation utility
2. g++- multilib, libc6-dev-i386 – to compile samples.
