*** New Features & Enhancements ***

MAJOR NEW OCR ENGINE SUPPORT! 
  - We are pleased to announce that the Dispatcher Phoenix standard license now includes 
    Google's Tesseract OCR engine, providing our     customers with a wide variety of 
    OCR processing capabilities, such as converting documents to Searchable PDF format 
    and extracting data from files via zonal OCR, at no additional cost! With this major 
    new licensing change, all new and existing Dispatcher Phoenix customers will receive 
    the Advanced OCR and Convert to PDF nodes powered by Tesseract, increasing the power 
    of their workflow automation with no additional optional modules or licenses required. 


MULTIPLE OCR ENGINE SUPPORT! 
  - Dispatcher Phoenix has been enhanced to support multiple OCR engines. Now, with this 
    new capability, our customers have the flexibility and freedom to choose the OCR engine
    that best suits their workflow (Tesseract OCR or Kofax OmniPage OCR). Support for multiple
    OCR engines has been added to the following processes:

     - Advanced OCR
     - Convert to PDF
     - Forms Processing 


NEW DISPATCHER PHOENIX MARKETPLACE APPS! 
  - Dispatcher Phoenix connector apps are now available from the MarketPlace, Konica Minolta's 
    cloud platform for apps and services (konicaminoltamarketplace.com). The following easy to 
    install apps are available:

     . Dispatcher Phoenix App - Provides easy access to your Dispatcher Phoenix workflows via the MarketPlace. 
     . Dispatcher Phoenix ScanTrip App - Provides quick access to all of your Dispatcher Phoenix scan-to-cloud workflows. 
     . Dispatcher Phoenix Release2Me+ App - Delivers secure printing and scan workflows right from the MarketPlace. 
 
    With these new connectors, users gain the flexibility to quickly and easily launch the associated
    Dispatcher Phoenix app at the MFP without needing to install the embedded application. Each application
    uses Dispatcher Phoenix's powerful Web Capture capabilities to streamline access to their scan-to-me, 
    scan-to-home, and scan-to-cloud workflows as well as intuitive folder browsing, advanced document indexing, 
    secure follow-you printing, and more! Customers hosting Dispatcher Phoenix in the cloud will also benefit 
    from enhanced connectivity between their cloud installation and their on-premise devices.

END OF SUPPORT (EOS) NOTICE! 
  - In keeping with Microsoft's EOS of Windows 8.1 and Server 2012 R2, we have announced EOS for those 
    operating systems to focus our efforts on supported versions of Windows. Customers still using 
    Dispatcher Phoenix on these EOS technologies are advised to upgrade their underlying Microsoft 
    operating systems to ensure stability. Dispatcher Phoenix will continue to work on older, 
    unsupported operating systems. However, future software releases will not be developed for, 
    or tested on, those systems.
