OCR multi-linquistic feature request
Would there be any possibility that the OCR feature could be extended to OCR a multi-linquistic document? Currently, I see only a way to select which particular language should be used to OCR a document, but that doesn't help if the document uses multiple languages. I'd like to be able to have it check for a multiple selection of languages.

Hi ds1,
Thanks for the post - I'm not 100% sure that the OCR engine that we use (Tesseract) allows for this, but I'll pass the suggestion along and will see if can add this.

Since you are using tesseract, its a real easy fix. All that needs to be done is allow the user to select which languages to use and then put a + between the 3 digit language codes sent to tesseract. And then you'd have more people using your program.

Hi ds1,
I've spoken with the Dev. Team and they've said that they will investigate the possibility further. If possible, they will very likely add the feature, but I cannot make definite guarantees on if/when this might be.
HTH!

Thanks for adding this to version 6! Haven't actually tried it out yet, but I see the options are there.
