Supported Languages

asked on October 22, 2015 Show version history

Hi All,

 

We know that Laserfiche comes in a whole host of different languages and can OCR over 120 languages, but is there a complete list of all the languages Laserfiche can OCR and support? I'm specifically interested in Georgian.

 

I'm assuming that because Laserfiche uses Omnipage as the OCR engine then the supported OCR list is provided by Omnipage, I found this - http://supportcontent.nuance.com/kbfiles/2674-LangSuppOP12.pdf

 

Is this correct?

Cheers!

The list of supported languages is: AFRIKAANS, ALBANIAN, AYMARA, BASQUE, BEMBA, BLACKFOOT, BRETON, BUGOTU, BULGARIAN, BYELORUSSIAN, CATALAN, CHAMORRO, CHECHEN, CHINESE SIMPLIFIED, CHINESE TRADITIONAL, CHUANA, CORSICAN, CROATIAN, CROW, CZECH, DANISH, DUTCH, ENGLISH, ESKIMO, ESPERANTO, ESTONIAN, FAROESE, FIJIAN, FINNISH, FRENCH, FRISIAN, FRIULIAN, GAELIC(IRISH), GAELIC(SCOTTISH), GALICIAN, GANDA, GERMAN, GREEK, GUARANI, HANI, HAWAIIAN, HUNGARIAN, ICELANDIC, IDO, INDONESIAN, INTERLINGUA, ITALIAN, JAPANESE, KABARDIAN, KASUB, KAWA, KIKUYU, KONGO, KOREAN, KPELLE, KURDISH, LATIN, LATVIAN, LITHUANIAN, LUBA, LULE, LUXEMBOURGIAN, MACEDONIAN, MALAGASY, MALAY, MALINKE, MALTESE, MAORI, MAYAN, MIAO, MINANKABAW, MOHAWK, MOLDAVIAN, NAHUATL, NORTHERN SAMI, NORWEGIAN, NYANJA, OCCIDENTAL, OJIBWAY, PAPIAMENTO, PIDGIN, POLISH, PORTUGUESE, PORTUGUESE(BRAZIL), PROVENCAL, QUECHUA, RHAETIC, ROMANIAN, ROMANY, RUANDA, RUNDI, RUSSIAN, SAMI, SAMOAN, SARDINIAN, SERBIAN(CYRILLIC), SERBIAN(LATIN), SHONA, SIOUX, SLOVAK, SLOVENIAN, SOMALI, SOTHO, SOUTHERN SAMI, SPANISH, SUNDANESE, SWAHILI, SWAZI, SWEDISH, TAGALOG, TAHITIAN, TINPO, TONGAN, TUN, TURKISH, UKRAINIAN, VISAYAN, WELSH, WEND, WOLOF, XHOSA, ZAPOTEC, ZULU.

I'm not sure what some of these languages are, like "Tinpo," but Georgian is not listed.

Hi Michael,

I want to confirm that if a document is OCRed in Russian, the users will be able to search using Russian characters and words even if the Laserfiche interface/language pack is English?

Hi Zaheer,

The language pack solely determines how the product static strings will be displayed. Data from all languages (including one's we don't have OCR for) is fully supported regardless of the UI language.

Hi Chris,

Did you have a question associated with this screenshot? These are the supported windows client language packs in Laserfiche 10.3, but as discussed above they are not the entirety of the languages supported by the OmniPage OCR Engine. Do note that as of Laserfiche 10.3.1 we now include OmniPage 19.2 which may support additional languages.

Thanks for the follow up Justin. Been a bit of a mental day here I think I was supposed to add more to this. This was more of a placeholder for me! So next time I go looking for my own answer it’s all in one place. No action required on this. Thanks!
