Installing and uninstalling the form capture system
The ABBYY FormReader Enterprise Edition form capture system consists of the following components:
1. Data and License Server
2. Administration station
3. Registration Station
4. Scanning Station
5. Recognition Station
6. Verification Station
7. Correction Station
8. Export and Monitoring Station
Important!
We recommend closing all the running applications (MS Outlook, MS Word, etc.) before installing ABBYY FormReader
Enterprise Edition.
You must have the local administrator’s permissions to install the program.
In order to install the program, you must have read and write permissions for the Server destination folder. If the Stations are installed
from the CD–ROM, it is enough to have read and write permissions for the LicenseBase subfolder of the Server destination folder.
Uninstall FormReader 6.5 Desktop/Developer Edition if this program is installed on your computer.
If your computer is running under Microsoft Windows Server 2000 or Windows Server 2003, the computers on which
the Server and the Stations will be installed must be in the same domain.
