Indexer policies allow you to configure the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) engine of SPS, and specify which languages it should use. Only graphical protocols (RDP, Citrix ICA, VNC) are affected.
If you specify the languages manually, note the following:
Specifying only one language provides the best results in terms of performance and precision.
The English language is always detected along with the non-English languages that you have configured. However, if you want the OCR to only recognize the English language, you have to select it from the list of languages.
There are certain limitations in the OCR engine when recognizing languages with very different character sets. For this reason, consider the following:
When selecting Asian languages (Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Korean), avoid adding languages that use the Latin alphabet.
When selecting the Arabic language, avoid selecting any other languages.
The Thai language is currently not supported. If you are interested in using SPS to index Thai texts, contact our Sales Team.
