Copy OCR lanuage files for PDF-Tools

[netsonicyxf]

We have a computer that can't connect to the internet for some reason, therefore it can't download the OCR languages.
Can we use other computers to download these files then copy them to this compuetr?

Hello netsonicyxf,

I'm not sure if this will work, but I suggest trying the following:

Important:
1. Make sure that the version of the application is the same on both computers before proceeding.
2. Before all manipulations, make a backup of the Common folder located at:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Tracker Software\Common

Then:
1. On a computer with internet access, download the desired languages.
2. Copy the relevant folder(s) from the internet-connected computer to the one without internet access:

• For the default OCR engine (Tesseract), copy:
  C:\Program Files\Common Files\Tracker Software\Common\Tesseract

• For the Enhanced (FineReader) OCR engine, copy:
  C:\Program Files\Common Files\Tracker Software\Common\ABBYY\Data\ExtendedDictionaries

If anything goes wrong, you can restore the original Common folder from your backup.

Best regards,
