ABBYY Recognition Server supports the following input formats:

• PDF
• BMP, PCX, DCX, JPEG, JPEG 2000, TIFF, PNG, and DjVu.

ABBYY Recognition Server supports both image-only PDF files and PDF files that already contain text.
PDF files that contain a text layer are processed in an “intelligent” manner:

• Recognition Server first extracts the text and checks its integrity.
  • If the text layer is good, Recognition Server will use it and will not perform OCR.
  • If the text contains errors or has encoding problems, Recognition Server will disregard it and recognize the document.
