OCR Engine Questions

I am considering using the ABBYY for Linux OCR engine because I currently use the ABBYY for Windows and have good results with it.

However, ABBYY for Linux is licensed per page. What I am wondering is will OpenKM recognize that PDF files currently in the repository already have been recognized by OCR and will not do it again? Also I am currently importing files directly into OpenKM from my scanner bypassing the OCR, will OpenKM recognize these files as needing OCR? Currently I do not have any OCR engine configured in OpenKM and would not deploy ABBYY for at least a few weeks.

OpenKM will make OCR of new documents and those which were modified. From administation you can see the pending extraction queue (inside statistics).
