"The positive response and feedback we received when we first brought our HTML5 SDK to market was outstanding," stated Otis Goodwin, Manager of LEADTOOLS Developer Support. "The great thing about HTML5 is that it is extremely extensible and our design takes into account that our customers will want us to add features quickly. In just a few short months, we have been able to add significant new functionality to our HTML5 offerings, with many features being added based on inventive feature requests made by our early adopters."

In addition to the HTML5 modules, various technologies throughout the LEADTOOLS product line were revamped and upgraded including OCR, PDF, Barcode, Medical Viewer, DICOM, PACS, 3D, formats and more. The extensive and diverse technology in the LEADTOOLS Document Engine received many improvements in speed, recognition accuracy, document formats supported and searchable text output quality.
