Afraid I've never used it so wouldnt know
The SDK help will go through the technical explanations of each of the APIs functions and there should be some example code either in one of the downloads or on the site. If you cant find any then drop their help a mail and they should be able to give you more assistance.

I had a look into and it seems its only for turning paper documents or tiffs into electronic format. Is that what you are planning on doing?
For programming and usage it seems to only provide a C++ and an activeX wrapper.

what exactly are you trying to do?
If its parse html/xml pages then Perl or another similar language will do that easily for you. If your trying to parse the text from gifs/jps etc then you can use the above sdk (after you convert them to tiffs).
Give us a bit more info to work with.

There are few parts
* Web application that allows users to upload image (create a cookie with unique ID)
* Images are stored in a "processing" folder (possibly marked by a unique ID)
* A separate service application on the server that takes batches of Images from the "processing" folder.
* Service application OCR's an image file and then places the data into a database (with the ID). Original File is deleted.
* Web application polls database with id from Cookie.
* When data becomes available, result is rendered as HTML. Cookie is deleted, data result record is deleted.
In order to create the service application you will have two options:
* Use an existing OCR library.
* Create your own OCR engine.
I hope that helps.
