I am delighted to announce that Datacap 9.1.10 became generally available on December 19, 2025, here is the announcement letter - IBM Datacap V9.1.10 delivers new features and enhancements.
Datacap 9.1.10 release highlights include:
IBM Datacap OCR Engine Enhancements
The OCR/A, OCR/PL, and OCR/S engines have been updated for improved performance. Key improvements include increased memory availability for OCR/A and support for multiple Rulerunners using OCR/PL on the same machine.
Benefits:
Datacap 9.1.10 enhances OCR processing for OCR/PL by allowing multiple Rulerunners on the same machine to use the OCR/PL actions, taking advantage of the excellent machine, handprint and handwriting recognition, it provides, without training. The OCR/A update provides more memory when processing documents, including the conversion of PDFs to TIFs and TIFs to PDFs. These changes enable organizations to achieve higher efficiency and reliability in document capture workflows.
IBM Datacap Server Services Enhancements
Automatic RRProcessor.exe Restart After Task Execution
To maintain optimal memory usage and resource allocation on the Rulerunner server—and to prevent unpredictable behavior—RRProcessor.exe now restarts automatically after each task execution, regardless of batch processing status.
Configurable Logging of Task XML and Process IDs
A new RR registry setting allows administrators to log task XML contents and process IDs in the Rulerunner thread log, providing deeper visibility for troubleshooting and diagnostics.
Extended Diagnostic Logging for Station Count Analysis
Datacap introduces an Extended Checking registry setting that enables additional diagnostic logging in TMS logs, improving accuracy and efficiency in station count debugging.
Benefits:
Datacap 9.1.10 enhances Rulerunner reliability and diagnostics with automatic RRProcessor.exe restarts, configurable task XML and process ID logging, and Extended Checking for advanced TMS diagnostics—improving stability, transparency, and troubleshooting.
IBM Datacap Navigator
Printing from the Local Rendering Viewer
In previous releases, the Local Rendering Viewer did not support printing. Starting with this release, when the Scan Client is configured to use the Local Rendering Viewer and the viewer is initialized, the toolbar now includes a Print icon.
Configuring Uppercase Column Names in Job Monitor
Datacap administrators can now configure the repository so that column names in the Job Monitor header are displayed in uppercase.
Jumping to Highlighted Fields When Zoomed
The Virtual Viewer now automatically jumps to the highlighted field on the page when it is zoomed in. Additionally, this feature prevents users from zooming in so far that the page moves outside the viewport.
Prevent Closing the Job Monitor Tab in Datacap Navigator
Administrators can configure the Datacap Main Page in IBM Content Navigator (ICN) to prevent end users from closing the Job Monitor tab when it should remain open.
Configuring Dynamic Web TWAIN Service for CORS
You can configure the Dynamic Web TWAIN Service (64-bit) to support Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS). By default, CORS is disabled. To enable it, follow the instructions under the Access-Control-Allow-Origin section on the Dynamsoft support page.
Benefits:
Datacap 9.1.10 enhances IBM Datacap Navigator with usability and configuration improvements, including printing from the Local Rendering Viewer, automatic navigation to highlighted fields in Virtual Viewer, customizable Job Monitor headers, tab control in ICN, and CORS support for Dynamic Web TWAIN. These updates boost efficiency, flexibility, and user experience.
IBM Datacap Development and Scripting Updates
Datacap now uses Visual Studio 2022 for improved development. With Microsoft starting to phase out VBScript by 2027, Datacap has been modernizing its legacy VBScript actions with modern C# equivalents.
Benefits:
By providing updated C# actions alongside legacy VBScript actions, Datacap customers can update applications in preparation for Microsoft’s VBScript deprecation.
Microsoft’s deprecation timeline indicates that VBScript features on demand (FOD) will be disabled by default around 2027 before being retired and eliminated from future versions of Windows*
Datacap customers with their own legacy VBScript actions should migrate custom actions to C# using Datacap Developer Kit templates. If customers create new custom actions, they should be created using the Visual Studio 2022 C# templates provided in the Datacap Developer Kit.

Datacap supports multiple languages for countries and regions worldwide. Language codes are used to set the locale associated with the language and regional settings for documents processed by your application.
Benefits:
Language code support in Datacap 9.1.10 enables accurate locale settings for documents, improving global usability, compliance, and data interpretation across regions.
