PAM – Product Activation Manager – new Version 2.0

Many of our software products have online product activation. During the first installation of the software, a 30-day demo version is automatically activated. For license management and product activation, every setup along with the application also includes our PAM (Product Activation Manager). Now there is the PAM version 2.0. This will be used from now on in all our new setups.

Innovations PAM 2.0:

  • PAM 2.0 is now always installed in the installation folder of the application and called from there. Previously, a common installation folder was used for all applications.
  • Combined version – 32bit and 64bit. There is no longer a split in 32bit and 64bit applications and licensing – so the display is now the same for all licenses, whether for 32 or 64bit applications.
  • Existing licenses (32bit and 64bit) are read from the registry and also written back – PAM 2.0 is therefore compatible with the previous versions of PAM, in both directions.
  • There is a separate setup to install and use the PAM 2.0 on any machine, even without a new application setup.
  • The communication with our PAM license server is encrypted using HTTPS via SOAP Web Service

AutoOCRLight Version 1.17.2 available

Since AutoOCR and AutoOCRLight are based on the same basis, AutoOCRLight version 1.17.2 is now also available together with the AutoOCR version 1.17.2. The “Light” version differs from the AutoOCR full version due to the following limitations:

  • Only one folder can be monitored
  • Only the iOCS / vsOCR and not the Abbyy OCR can be used
  • No PDF/A output is possible
  • The Light version has no web service (REST / SOAP) interface

All other functions are the same as the standard AutoOCR Server

AutoOCR Version 1.17.2 – New iOCR Option – Do not or only partially embed fonts

Until now the used font was completely embedded in the created PDF’s. Therefore, especially with input files with one page always quite large PDF output files were generated. However, since the PDFs generated by AutoOCR use an image for display in the foreground and do not require fonts to display, we have changed that. By default, iOCR does not embed PDF fonts. There is the option to embed only the used part of the fonts. Thus, especially for documents that consist of only one or a few pages significantly smaller PDF files are created without embedded fonts.
