The `UiPath.AbbyyEmbedded.Activities` package includes two activities, the [Abbyy Screen OCR](https://docs.uipath.com/activities/other/latest/document-understanding/abbyy-screen-ocr) activity (when used, the UI element or image information is extracted from the desired source), and the [Abbyy Document OCR](https://docs.uipath.com/activities/other/latest/document-understanding/abbyy-document-ocr) activity (when used, the textual information is extracted from the desired source).

By default, the `UiPath.AbbyyEmbedded.Activities` package is available for a wide range of languages. You can check the entire list by accessing the **Abbyy Screen OCR** activity page or the **Abbyy Document OCR**. An extra bundle package is available for **ChinesePRC**, **ChineseTaiwan**, **Japanese**, **Korean**, and **KoreanHangul** but it needs to be installed separately by using the **Manage Packages** button.

## Important

#### C# Project Flavor Support

Starting with version 1.1.0, this activity package is validated for use in C# projects.

#### Other notes

**Abbyy Screen OCR** can only be used for screen scraping and does not work when used for other actions.

As an alternative to the other OCR engines, you can use it with any of the available activities from the `UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities` package.
