9. Once finished you can quit the ABBYY console. 

10. To check activated license:

./LicenseManager.Console --listAvailableLicenses

The output should be the license number that you entered before. 

 

11. Add the license number in the filter

vi /opt/systran/filter/plugins/abbyy/etc/plugin.cfg

license = $license_key_value

 

12. Restart the filter by going on the web interface in "Advanced configuration" and
put the instances number to 0 then reset the previous number of instances.

 

Note 1:

It could be usefull to limit ABBYY RAM usage by limiting number of process in RAM (will also reduce OCR speed). You can do that by adding /opt/systran/filter/plugins/abbyy/etc/plugin.cfg

max_recognition_processes_count = 4

 

 

Note 2:

If ABBYY license service is not started:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/systran/filter/plugins/abbyy/lib 
cd /opt/systran/filter/plugins/abbyy/lib
./LicensingService -start
