ABBYY FineReader Sprint
ABBYY FineReader Sprint is an OCR (Optical Character Recognition) software that converts scanned documents, PDFs, and images into editable and searchable text formats. It's commonly used by professionals, students, and businesses who need to digitize paper documents or extract text from image-based PDFs. The app can recognize text in multiple languages and convert documents to formats like Word, Excel, and searchable PDFs. FineReader Sprint was often bundled with scanners and offered as a lighter version of ABBYY's full FineReader suite, focusing on core OCR functionality for everyday document processing tasks.
Suggested Replacements
1 suggestionABBYY has discontinued FineReader Sprint and replaced it with FineReader PDF, which is actively maintained and available as a native Apple Silicon application. The current FineReader PDF includes all the OCR capabilities of the old Sprint version plus advanced PDF editing features. You should upgrade to FineReader PDF to get native Apple Silicon performance and continued support. If you're looking for a more affordable alternative, consider using the built-in OCR capabilities in macOS Preview or apps like PDF Protector, though these may have fewer advanced features than ABBYY's solutions.
