v1.4.0

• iOS bugfixes:
  • Fixed possible deadlock in some cases when MRTD documents are scanned.
  • Fixed issue with OCR speed on arm7 devices when Accelerate framework was used.
  • Fixed incorrect returning of Address and License number in UKDL scanning.
• iOS updates:
  • PPOverlayViewController changed the way Overlay Subviews are added to the view hierarchy. Instead of calling addOverlaySubview: (which automatically added a view to view hierarachy), you now need to call registerOverlaySubview: (which registers subview for scanning events), and manually add subview to view hierarchy using addSubview: method. This change gives you more flexibility for adding views and managing autolayout and autoresizing masks.
  • Localization Macros MB_LOCALIZED and MB_LOCALIZED_FORMAT can now be overriden in your app to provide completely custom localization mechanisms.
  • Dramatically increased OCR engine initialization speed
  • Increased speed of scanning cancellation when Cancel button is pressed.
• ID scanning improvements
  • Added EUDL recognizer (replaced UKDL recognizer). EUDL is capable of automatically detecting various EU Drivers licenses. Currently it works only on German and UK DLs.
  • Fixed issue with 0 and O misclassifications in MRTD recognition
  • Added support for Austrian MRTD ID documents
• Internal changes:
  • Implementeded Templating API for easier implementation of new document types
  • Implemented Face detection
  • Implemented support for Eastern Arabic numeral characters
