Select OCR language from a code page
Microsoft Windows
Policy overview
Key metadata and intent for this policy.
Supported OS tags: Windows7, Windows8, Windows81, WindowsRT, WindowsRT81, WindowsServer2012, WindowsServer2012R2
This policy setting allows selecting of OCR (Optical Character Recognition) languages that belong to one of the supported code pages. If you enable this policy setting, the selected OCR languages are used in OCR processing during the indexing of TIFF files. The default system language is ignored unless it is among the selected OCR languages. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, only the default system language is used. All selected OCR languages must belong to the same code page. If you select languages from more than one code page, the entire OCR language selection is ignored and only the default system language is used. Re-indexing is not initiated when you enable this policy and selecting OCR languages. This policy setting only applies to the indexing of new files, unless re-indexing is initiated manually.
