Webcenter Capture Recognition

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement around Oracle Webcenter Capture. Requirement is - I need to scan a pdf/tiff file. The file has a value ( a numeric string ) , which has to be identified and recognized and then that numeric has to be set as the scanned document name followed by the extension.
For example : The document before scanning has a number on it saying 12345. This field is identified and recognized and post scanning the scanned document has to be named as 12345.pdf or 12345.tiff
Can this requirement be met by Oracle Document Capture or Recognition Server or Oracle Forms recognition.
Regards
Abhilash

This is a very basic requirement for Document Capture.
Pls go through these links and feel free to post questions if any.

Oracle WebCenter Forms Recognition

hello ,,
i need to know the steps i can follow in order to learn document via Oracle WebCenter Forms Recognition application

Hi,
Please find the note in the following link.
Oracle WebCenter Content - Downloads | Oracle Technology Network | Oracle</title><meta name="Title" c…
It says "*Note: The WebCenter Forms Recognition download is available under "Individual Component Downloads". So it has to be downloaded from Individual component downloads.
Imaging and capture are available as browser tools. WFR has to be installed as a separate tool in any windows machine.
Thanks.

Webcenter Capture OCR Engine and Languages

Hello, does anyone know which OCR engines are used in full document OCR recognition? Is there support for recognition of Greek text?
Thanks in advance!

WebCenter Capture is new name for the same "old" Oracle Document Capture. Even the official WebCenter links are pointing to the 10gR3 documentation. Latest version is 10.1.3.5.1 and I gave information related to this one. Once, I stumbled upon the list of supported OCR languages but I can't find it any more. Anyway it was useless as there was over 100 languages with only handful marked as "tested", meaning that Oracle doesn't guarantee they all are actually working as expected.
For the greek language I have looked inside my Document Capture, so support is there for sure.

Boris

Acrobat 7.0 OCR: Unable to process the page because the Paper Capture recognition service unexpectedly terminated

Hello,
This error occurs on some computers and but not others. I even tested it with the most basic word document, no formatting and scanned it.
It works on a few systems but others get the message:
Unable to process the page because the Paper Capture recognition service unexpectedly terminated.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Did 7.0 have issues?
Thanks

You still didn't answer for Michael the version of 7 At one time adobe prodived and standrad version and a pro version. Standard basically done the same thing as the Print to PDF feature in the Print Menu (of the Macintosh).
Pro added features such as forms creation.
Also the exact version number can be found in the about acrobat under the Acrobat menu.
example for my version would be:

Oracle WebCenter Forms Recognition (WFR) 11.1.1.8.0 now available!

Here's a quick write-up with some basic info:

Does Webcenter Capture which comes with Webcenter Suite 11.1.1.8 has any conflict with SOA server

Hi,
I have a weblogic Domain with Weblogic version 10.2.6. It has following managed servers installed:
SOA Server/ UCM/ IBR/ URM/ IRM/ IPM/ WC_Utilities/ WC_Spaces/ WC_Portlet/ WC_Collaboration.
All of these Servers have been upgraded to 11.1.1.8.
I wanted to extend this domain to include Webcenter Capture as well. But the moment after i extend this domain. SOA server fails to start.
All the SOA applications that i used to see in EM are no more visible.
Does anybody has any idea about this?
Thanks,
Rohan Rajore

Thanks a lot Jiri,
But I'm not speaking about Imaging. Imaging (IPM) is already present in my domain. I'm extending the domain with Capture Server.
And It really looks like there is some sort of conflict between Capture Server and existing SOA Server because:
1] Before Extending the Domain with capture server, I start the Admin Server, I log in to the EM Console and I see all the SOA Applications listed there.
2] After Extending the Domain with capture server, I start the admin server. Then 1st thing I start after this is soa server (as you said). This fails. And in the EM console I no more see SOA Applications.
What I can conclude from this is, there could possibly a conflict between soa and capture servers when capture server is installed on existing soa server (may not be the case if soa is installed later.)
Thanks,
Rohan Rajore

WebCenter Form Recognition WebVerifier directory name {Directory Path} is Invalid

Hi
I'm facing the below issue while trying to open the Web Center Form Verifier using web Verifier.
The WebVerifier directory name {Directory Path} is Invalid. please contact your system administrator.
OS : Window Server 2008 R2
Software: Oracle WebCenter Form recognition 11.1.1.8.0

Thanks

You are getting this message because the WFR web server is trying to access the project file in a directory that is not valid on that server. I assume that path is correct on the Designer machine but the web server is on a different machine?
Assuming the project file is on a file server, you should share that folder then open the project in Designer via the UNC path to the share. Then, go to the Options menu and select the Users, Groups and Roles... option. On the Users tab of the Project Authentication dialog, ensure that the Allow Database Authentication option is checked, then click the Export to Database... button. That will create an entry in the database for that project pointing to the UNC path instead of the local path, so the web server should then be able to access it (provided you have assigned sufficient permissions on the share).
Alternatively, you could copy the project folder structure to the web server on the same path as it is on the Designer machine. This should work but will cause issues for ongoing administration of the project, as you will need to keep the copy on the web server synchronized with that on the Designer machine. I wouldn't recommend doing this.

Create new user in WebCenter Capture

Hi all,
Is it possible to create new user in Oracle WebCenter Capture?
In documentation I found that it can be done, but I can not find how...
Capture Users have client access to workspaces to which they have been granted access. Users are further granted access to specific client profiles. Capture user information is covered in Oracle Fusion Middleware Using Oracle WebCenter Capture. Any user that needs access to the client needs to be assigned the CaptureUser role in Oracle Enterprise Manager.

I found it, it is in Enterprise Manager.

Workaround for OCR "Unknown Error"/"Paper Capture recognition service experienced an error"

Problem Description:
When attempting to "Recognize Text", one of the following error messages appears:
"Unknown Error." when using one of the "Searchable Image" or "Searchable Image (Exact)" settings, or
"Unable to process the page because the Paper Capture recognition service experienced an error. (6)" when using the "ClearScan" setting.
Problem Origin:
It seems to be a compatibility issue in the PDF and not in the OCR algorithm itself, although this is speculation and not an official statement.
Problem Workaround:
A possible solution consists of saving the afflicted PDF pages as PNG images (lossless), opening the PNGs in Acrobat, and then performing OCR. Specifically,
Page Thumbnails -> Right-click afflicted pages -> Extract Pages...
File -> Open extracted pages
File -> Save as -> Image -> PNG
Right-click PNG files -> Convert to Adobe PDF
Tools -> Recognize Text -> In This File
File -> Open original PDF
Page Thumbnails -> Right-click afflicted pages -> Replace Pages...
This has worked for every problem instance that I've come across, and there appears to be no quality loss. If anyone else can verify this solution, I would appreciate it.

Attempt to run Acrobat 9.5.3 OCR on MacBook Pro under Snow Leopard generates the error message:
   Acrobat could not perform recognition (OCR) because:
   Unable to process the page because the Paper Capture recognition service experienced and error. (17)
   Ignore future errors in this document.
Login as Administrator, launch Acrobat, open one page PDF document without OCR, ..., OCR successful, close document, note additional warning message:
   Suit Product Activation Needed
   Adobe Acrobat was installed as part of a suite. To enable Adobe Acrobat, please start another component of this suite (such as Adobe Photoshop).
Switch back to user account, quit and relaunch Acrobat and OCR works fine.
Looking back at my records I see that I ran into the same error on 11/11/11 probably under Acrobat 9.4.6, but I didn't record the fix.

Clearscan OCR ERROR: Paper Capture recognition service experienced and error (6)

I get the following error when I try to run a Clearscan OCR over my PDF:
"Acrobat could not perform recognition (OCR) because:
Unable to process the page because the Paper Capture recognition service experienced an error. (6)"
The problem seems like it might be resolved with a PDF made from 300dpi scans, but I do not like the quality loss so I would rather run this on the 600dpi scans. I wish I could get more information on this "error" that the Paper Capture recognition service experienced. Any ideas?

Ok I think I might have a workaround *IF* this error is only thrown on a few offending pages. If you have only one page, OR if it is essential that all pages then this will probably not be a workaround for you.
*FYI* this workaround also applies to the stupid "Unknown Error" that occurs in non-Clearscanned OCR. ("Unknown Error" -- Ha, this is the type of error handling I use when I don't care about anyone using my programs, sounds like Adobe feels the same way).
Since Acrobat spits out such a stupid error, and since it doesn't work in any other scan mode (non-clearscan in any DPI) for these pages, and since there is no log file to look at for the 'paper capture recognition service' to even diagnose the problem, and since they seem completely ok with their absoutely horrible error handling here and since Adobe seems incapable of fixing this error for the last few versions and since they don't care enough to offer any help in their KB regarding an issue affecting hundreds (maybe a few thousand) of users here is a POSSIBLE workaround to clearscan your document if you get this error:
(The following instructions are for Acrobat X (you might have to click 'show and hide pannels' at the top-right of the TOOLS BOX if some of these options are not available; 9 has the same bug and workaround but where you find things are different of course)
1) Scan your pages OR save your pdf as INDIVIDUAL PAGES (there must be a way to export your pdf into individual pages, you might need to use the batch manager (tools->action wizard on Acrobat X))
2) Tools->Action Wizard->Save individual files as pdf: If you don't have individual pdf pages (you have jpegs or tiff) then convert them to PDF FIRST (yes that's right, despite the seemingly obvious thought that a batch Clearscan would actually *gasp* batch Clearscan your files, it won't, it will only convert them to PDFs
3) Tools->Recognize Text->In Multiple Files: Now select to clearscan all your individual files
4) You will get an error on offending pages where Clearscan would normally give you an 'error 6' BUT this method will get around the moronic error-THEN-exit design of Clearscan and allow you to actually Clearscan most of your document
5) Create->Combine Files into Single PDF: Once all pages have been Clearscanned you can reassemble the individual pages to the full document
If you needed that particular page to be clearscanned, this method will not work for you. If you just want 99% of your document to be clearscanned, then hopefully this will help.
We have to admit that Clearscan is a one-of-a-kind technology. The OCR scientists should be given a raise for this. The software engineers and support staff, on the other hand, should go back to the community college they flunked out of and learn a bit more about programming.

Paper Capture Recognition Service

I have a user, using a HP Scanjet N8460 series scanner.
We are trying to put our documents into PDF for storage, and so have a lot to do.
She reported to me that out of 50 scans, 15 times, she got the following error:
"Unable to process the page because the Paper Capture Recognition Service experienced an error"
I did not see anything in the FAQ's about it. Is this something that is known, can someone give me some direction in resolving?
Thanks

First, here is a solution (it looks long, but to be honest it is simple, but I just have an exaple in case someone did not understand the "steps" of hte procedure. It you understand the 4 main steps, then there is no need to read the sub steps or the examples):
1.     Bookmark AND "print to PDF" ALL pages which thrown the "Unable to process..." error message either:
          By trial and error, or through a patch process (mentioned in sfxjhw2's post in the post script)
          (for trial and error, notice that Adobe Acrobat will show the page it has last processed while running an OCR...
          it will be in top left corner of screen, but may revert to page 1 quickly after click "ok" on the error message)
For the Trial And Error approach: lets say for example that I notice that pg 12 gave me my first error.
After clicking "ok" on the error message, I am back to square one as Adobe discards all the work done once it hits this error.
            A.     So, as a preliminary step. I would bookmark the page throwing the error (bookmark page 12) as "ERROR" then,
run an OCR up to the page thrwoing the error, but not including the error page (ex, OCR pages 1-11, but NOT 12).
            B.     Then Run OCR on the next ten or twenty pages AFTER the error page (ex pg OCR pages 13-23, but NOT 12)
            C.     Bookmark the next page (in that group) which generates an error (if any)
Repeat this process until the "whole" document is OCRed (of course pages throwing errors will not be OCRed)
Full example, I ran OCR on whole document, and pg 12 caused it to stop, and it discarded all the work it did. So,
I first bookmark pg 12 as "error", then
go to "document">"OCR text recognition">"recognize text using OCR">"From page 1 to 11". It successfully runs, then
skip page 12 (it is already bookmarked as "error"), then
go to "document">"OCR text recognition">"recognize text using OCR">"From page 13 to 23". Page 20 throws an error, so next...
Bookmark page 20 as "error"
go to "document">"OCR text recognition">"recognize text using OCR">"From page 13 to 19". It successfully runs, then
skip page 20 (it is already bookmarked as "error"), then
go to "document">"OCR text recognition">"recognize text using OCR">"From page 21 to 31". It successfully runs, then
go to "document">"OCR text recognition">"recognize text using OCR">"From page 32 to 42". It successfully runs, then
go to "document">"OCR text recognition">"recognize text using OCR">"From page 43 to 53". Page 50 throws asn error, so next...
Bookmark page 50 as "error"
go to "document">"OCR text recognition">"recognize text using OCR">"From page 43 to 49". It successfully runs, then
skip page 50 (it is already bookmarked as "error"), then
go to "document">"OCR text recognition">"recognize text using OCR">"From page 51 to 61". It successfully runs, then
Final Save file (btw you should probably be saving the file as you go)
            D.     "Print to pdf" those pages (and only those pages) which you have bookmarked as "error"
For The Batch Method: if you have a document over a few hundred pages there is a better way using batch process. Export your PDF (or print your document to pdf) with each page as an individual PDF file. And then Batch process each PDF into an OCRed PDF. You will then have to search through those pages to find out which ones have not been ocred (im guessing by sorting by "date modified" or by saving them with a new name, ie "filename - ocr.pdf" (see quote below my ps, by "sfxjhw2")
3.     Run OCR on those "error" pages
4.     drag and drop or copy and paste those pages into your original OCRed pdf document.
Now for the complaint... I have seen this question posted many times in Adobe forums, just to point out a few:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/3765069
http://boardreader.com/thread/OCR_Error_1wblzXai76.html
http://forums.adobe.com/message/1171341#1171341.
It irks me that
this problem has persisted through many versions of Acrobat
Adobe has failed to either fix it or post an obvious solution in the forums
Adobe has not even done a better job with error handling (causing the whole program to stop the OCR instead of asking if you would like to skip the page, continue, and and bookmark the page that has not been OCRed).
Hope this helps.
And, to Adobe, all in all great product, just wish the error handling was a little better, this problem was fixed, and there was better menu control to change the font on comments and the typewritter.

How is the paper capture (or OCR) being used? If you are trying to archive documents, you would only want to use it for developing search funtions. In any case, the quality of the text will dictate how well the OCR works and that is a major problem if you are actually replacing graphics text with OCR text. What I am suggesting is that you need to carefully look at your work flow and the desired output before you put much more time into this. Try some samples and look at the results. OCR is not required, but does allow searching (at least if the OCR is half-way decent. However, it can be hidden text (best for archiving) or replace the graphic (usually not a good idea when archiving).
I am assuming that you are doing all of this through Acrobat and thus the paper capture is within Acrobat. Some scanners do OCR also and it can be important to determine which you are getting.
More information on exactly how you are using Acrobat to perform the processing you are doing would be useful. I am just guessing on what you are doing. Also, Paper Capture in Acrobat was changed in name several versions back, so it sounds like you are using AA5, but I have no clue for sure. All that would help us help you.

Paper capture recognition service experienced an error. (17)

I am using Adobe 9 Pro Extended and it is fine until a few days earlier the OCR stopped working. It will say something like Acrobat could not perform recognition (OCR) because:
Unable to process the page because the paper capture recognition service experienced an error. (17)
I tried repairing and already updating to the newest update. Document scanned in 300dpi always worked until now.
Any expert knows what is error 17? Thanks.

This log in user does not have proper rights to use WebCenter Capture

Hi experts,
We have WCI 11.1.1.8.0 setup. It has WEC configured. However when I login with "weblogic" user. This is domain admin user. WEC allows user to login and shows top navigation bar. However in the body it shows below message
"This log in user does not have proper rights to use WebCenter Capture"
I am sure i have not gives a proper group/ role to this user. I am not sure which one is that.
Regards,
Vikrant Korde.

Hi Vikrant,
This happens if user is not in Capture Application Role.
Check this:
Log in to EM
Right-click the capture_domain, select Security, and then Application Roles
In the Application Stripe field, select capture, and then click the Search application roles icon to display the Capture application roles.
In the Capture User add this weblogic.
It will work now.
