  • PC with 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor with a CPU frequency of at least 2 GHz and at least two cores.

    Note. We do not recommend using computers with over 12 cores for ABBYY FineReader Server. Adding more cores when you are already using 12 will not result in a proportional increase in productivity. A further increase in productivity can be achieved, however, by using additional Processing Stations installed on other computers.

  • Operating system: Microsoft® Windows® 11 / 10 / 8.1, Windows Server® 2022 / 2019 / 2016 / 2012 R2 / 2012 with Desktop Experience.
  • Memory: 4 GB RAM
  • Hard disk space: up to 7 GB depending on the installed components and 2 GB more for program operation *

    Important! The performance of ABBYY FineReader Server depends on the speed of your disk drive. We recommend that you use a solid-state drive.

  • The account under which the server is running must have read/write permissions to the following registry branches:
    • HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
    • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\ABBYY (for 32-bit system)
    • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WOW6432Node\ABBYY (for 64-bit system)
    • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ABBYY
  • Microsoft Outlook 2010 or later is required for processing and sending e-mail messages via Microsoft Exchange Server and the MAPI protocol. If you do not have Microsoft Outlook, you will still be able to process and send messages using the POP3/SMTP protocol
  • Internet Information Services (IIS 7 or later) is required for hosting the WEB API of ABBYY FineReader Server.
  • Scanning Stations require a scanner with the TWAIN, WIA or ISIS protocol.
  • Scanning Stations require MSXML6.
  • For processing documents in SharePoint document libraries processing and exporting to document libraries, you will need SharePoint 2013 / 2016 / 2019 or SharePoint Online.
