FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)


What functions are included?

This is a complete document processing, archival and retrieval system.  Functions available are: zone OCR (used to convert specified areas within document to text for purposes of database retrieval (ODBC), front end databases used for validation and extraction, choice of backend databases for retrieval, sophisticated user-definable indexing techniques, choice of repository image formats (Tif or PDF), optional bar code recognition and forms recognition, and standard Windows Explorer dynamic folder structures.

How is this application different than other document management systems?

It was developed using an “open” architecture design.  All file structures and images are non-proprietary.   Images are captured using MS Outlook (email) or Windows folders. The application processes the images through a series of user definable steps, then publishes the images to Windows Explorer. The indexing data is written to a variety of backend databases and indexes for retrieval purposes. It is the best value in document management software in the marketplace because it leverages free, downloadable software from Microsoft and Adobe.

What scanners or multi-function devices are compatible with the application?

The application is device independent.  If the scanning device can produce a Tiff, PDF or JPG image, then the images can be processed.
