Data Entry OCR Forms

October 15th, 2009 by Marsha

Question:
What role can OCR play in the data entry process?

Answer:
OCR programs recognize printed text within documents to make them readable by machine. When entering data from forms into an electronic database, many businesses and organizations prefer to save time by automating the process. OCR technology allows the computer to automatically recognize text characters within a scanned form. The forms processing software can then extract the necessary information from the form and enter it into a database, customizable to the preferences of the user. CVISION offers a comprehensive data entry tool called Trapeze, which processes forms and documents quickly and accurately.

Compress JPEG to PDF

October 2nd, 2009 by Marsha

Question:
Is compressing JPEG to PDF like converting JPEG to a PDF and compressing it in one step?

Answer:
Essentially, yes. Compressing a JPEG into a PDF always involves two steps, conversion and compression. Sometimes, the process is referred to in this way because there are programs designed to combine the two steps into one for users who need to perform the process repeatedly for different files. This saves time and repetitive work, and allows simple processes to be automated. One such program is CVISION’s PdfCompressor, which can convert to PDF from many different image formats, and then compress the PDF file, leaving you with a PDF that is high quality but significantly reduced in size.
