Introduction
Readiris is I.R.I.S.' flagship document recognition software. With Readiris you can scan paper documents,
open image files, PDF files and digital camera images and turn them into fully editable text documents and
text-searchable PDF documents you can save, share and send to online Storage Systems. Readiris supports
a wide range of output formats, the most important ones being PDF, DOCX and XLSX.
The documents Readiris generates can either be saved on your computer, directly sent via e-mail or
exported to online Storage Systems such as Evernote, Dropbox, Google Drive, Box and Microsoft OneDrive.
With Readiris Corporate you can also send documents to Microsoft SharePoint.
Readiris recognizes documents in 130 languages. All American and European languages, including the
Central-European, Baltic and Cyrillic languages as well as Greek and Turkish are supported. Readiris also
recognizes Hebrew, as well as four Asian languages: Japanese, Simplified and Traditional Chinese and
Korean.
Besides text recognition, Readiris offers powerful compression features for PDF files, thanks to I.R.I.S.'
