Data import

Like ABBYY FineReader, the utility allows you to scan handwritten recipes and convert them to editable form. There are instruments for manually editing the list of ingredients and cooking directions. Moreover, an option to add personal notes to the document is provided. It is possible to import recipes in the PDF, DOC, XLS or TXT file formats as well.

Library management

Users are able to quickly find specific content in the catalog based on ingredients, cuisines, keywords or dietary restrictions. There are flexible filtering options for narrowing down the results by preparation time, difficulty level and other attributes.
