What is OCR?

OCR which stands for optical character recognition allows your computer to do a lot of things. When you scan papers, the files appear on your computer as images. There is not much you can do with this unless you choose to OCR the files. With OCR your computer now converts these files into documents that are not only text-searchable but also text-editable. Now that you are able to turn your physical papers into documents that can be worked with by your computer, it makes daily processes much easier.

Another way OCR will be helpful is with daily activities such as invoice processing. You are now able to automate the process which means it will be more efficient and the risk for human error is gone.
