Behavior:
You would like to take some of the OCRing load off your DocuWare Server and share it with a Client Machine running Import, Scan App, or DocuWare Printer.

Solution:
The default OCR maximum page setting on a Client Machine is the first/last 25 pages of a document. There will be situations where you upload a document more than 50 pages. At that point, the rest of the OCRing will be done on the DocuWare Server. This setting can be adjusted to increase the number of pages OCR'd on a Client Machine.

  • Navigate to where DocuWare Desktop Apps are installed on your client machine. The example below shows the location of the installed Desktop Apps on the C Drive.
    • C:\Program Files(x86)\DocuWare\Desktop
    • Make a backup of the file named Desktop.DesktopService.exe.config, rename the backup file's extension to .bak
    • Edit the file in Notepad
    • Locate the key labeled OcrPageMaximum
    • Change the value to the number of pages desired to be OCR'd on the Client Machine:
      <add key="OcrPageMaximum" value="25"/><!-- first 25 and last 25 pages --> *
    • Restart the DocuWare Desktop Service and the DocuWare Desktop Apps

*This change will not affect the DocuWare Online Desktop Apps
