OCR Services

OCR, or Optical Character Recognition, is the process of converting imaged characters into 'readable' characters that are immediately available to manipulate as text for searching and editing.

Scandex Systems provides 2 types of OCR solutions with scanned images:

  • Conversion to Adobe Acrobat's PDF files that are OCR'd for searching capabilities.  To search these documents, your computer must use Adobe Acrobat Reader 6.0 or greater, accessible for free over the internet at www.adobe.com.  This also keeps your documents secure and unmodifiable.
  • Using our sophisticated OCR conversion software, we are able to convert text on images to ASCII text files which can then be imported easily into other applications such as Word Processing.  The algorithms used in this process are state-of-the-art guaranteeing you the highest quality output available in the industry today.

Quality of Output

No OCR software is 100% accurate in the conversion process.  Our OCR continually brings in results of 99% or better assuming the originals are excellent quality.  The higher the quality of the original documents to be converted, the higher the success rate of the OCR conversion.

Customers like Subaru, Office Depot, and American Express have had great success using the OCR capabilities of our software for very important projects.

FORMS Processing

Perhaps you have forms that you'd like to have OCR'd. Streamline the data entry process by scanning the forms and use our data capture software.  You can OCR and automatically import the form's information into accounting software, databases, ERP and much more.
"Outstanding work; I am very impressed and pleased!  Looks to be an error rate of one word per page or so; I could not ask for better work.  In addition to quality and accuracy, I appreciate the speed of turnaround and helpful customer service."
