Product:	IMiS/OCR Server
Release:	9.x.1912
Date:	12/20/2019

Case:

This IMiS/OCR Server release is a service pack of the previous release. New features include reloading OCR engine when running out of memory error is detected and a restriction on pdf input files. Pdf files that have no images are now skipped. This was due to the fact that pdf come in all sorts and can affect the stability of the service. This release also fixes a deadlock in the Console that could happen after the start of the service and some minor memory leaks fixes. You are welcome to try our demo IMiS/OCR Server at ocr.server@imis.si. Note that the service is not available for emails from public domains, but you may request access to test its performance. For more information contact us at sales@imis.si.
