Question:
I am looking for a program that provides a fairly wide set of operations that I can perform with my PDFs and other scanned documents. Document conversion is necessary, and compression would be a big plus. Can you recommend any software, and are there any other features that I should keep in mind?

Answer:
One of the best solutions for your needs would be PdfCompressor from CVISION. PdfCompressor contains everything that you listed, as well as some other capabilities that you will find useful.

Document OCR Software

October 29th, 2009 by Marsha

Question:
What capabilities does OCR software give me for managing my documents that I would not have otherwise?

Answer:
Essentially, OCR software allows you to work with the text in scanned files, which would otherwise be processed only as images. Thanks to OCR software, you can search for the text that you need within a document instead of looking through it manually, and you can also copy and paste selections instead of retyping them. None of this is possible without using OCR first. You can find the OCR software that best fits your needs by looking online. If you require a high-quality, accurate, and fast solution, you should try Maestro Recognition Server from CVISION.

Document Management OCR

October 29th, 2009 by Marsha

Question:
How role can OCR play in my document management processes? Is OCR part of document management software?

Answer:
OCR allows document management software to recognize the text within your scanned documents, so that the computer can read them as more than just image files. Some documents, such as forms that contain data zones, cannot be processed until the text inside those zones is machine-readable. OCR takes care of this crucial step in the document management process, so that the software can proceed to extract the relevant information and enter it into a database. Trapeze, CVISION’s document management solution, is powered by one of the most accurate OCR engines on the market.
