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.
