v1.8.0

Release Date: 5 October 2021

Improvements

Improvements have been made to optimize the OCR results on scanned documents. Best results are obtained by keeping the skew angle between +/- 20 degrees.

Due to improvements to image processing algorithms, changes might appear in the digitization of certain documents.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug that was causing the OCR engine to return an error on certain air-gapped systems.
• To avoid compilation errors when publishing libraries that contain the OmniPage OCR activity, this package has been optimized for thread-safety.

Known Issues

• If you want to use any OCR activity from this package in Studio v2019.10, please install the UiPath.CoreIPC package, version 2.0.1 or higher.

Release Date: 4 May 2020

New Features and Improvements

OmniPage OCR is now available as a default option in the OCR section of Studio’s Project Settings window.

A small improvement was done for the OmniPage OCR activity by adding descriptions for all the Scale, Result, and Profile options.

The language option for OmniPage OCR activity used with the Screen Scraping wizard is now displayed as a text box, not as a drop-down list. You can now add the language code directly as a string. After running the process, if no language is matched with your input, then the field is automatically set to auto. This change is visible in the process logs.
