Countries and languages: Overview

Capture Components Administration includes predefined country specifications and language specifications.

A country specification contains information about which language and handwriting styles are to be used when processing documents that originate from a specific country.

A language specification tells the system what language it can expect to extract. They include settings on which dictionary and characters are used for that language.

A document specification should only have one country and one language selected. All document specifications included in a batch specification should have the same language selected.

The built-in country specifications and language specifications cannot be modified in any way. However, you can create your own.
