Scanning is the conversion of paper documents into electronic images. A typical scanning system provides scanning of multi page document, which can be saved as different image file format. But a production scanning system require much more than this.

In a production scanning environment, different type of documents comes together for scanning which have to be either automatically separated by the system or manually by the operator. Not only this, different type of files contains different type of documents. For example an account opening application file consist of Application form, Address proof, PAN proof etc. while a loan application file consist of Application form, Address proof, Income proof, property papers etc. System should provide the facility of defining different templates for different files so that system recognizes the documents automatically and separates them accordingly.

Many times you have to scan different type of documents with different scanning properties like an application form you might like to scan in color as it contains photograph and others in black and white.

While Scanning you might need some data entry based on scanned images, which require user-defined indexes that can be shown along with the image for data entry. System should be capable enough to provide all these functionalities.

Intuitive and easy-to-use Graphical User Interface
OmniCapture has an easy to use user interface that supports extensive file scanning features. It supports scanning of different pages of a file in different DPI and image types, automatic document separation based on standard form, bar code and blank page separators, extraction of data from scanned images, user defined index entry, automatic filing and data association with documents and folder while exporting to Document Management System, export to CSV. It also supports image verification and correction like rescan a bad image, delete page, insert before, insert after, deskew, deborder etc.

Script for handling complex scanning using simplex and duplex scanners
OmniCapture supports easy to understand scripts, which handles simple as well as complex scanning using simplex as well as duplex scanners. Script provides the facility of auto separation of documents, Quality improvements like de-skewing, black boarder removal etc., Data extraction and population, Classification of documents.

Using scripts user can define fields for indexing, these fields can be linked to legacy systems for data population and updation. Fields can have different attributes like Type (text, currency, date etc.), size, read only, has pick list etc. If a field as fix number of values then user can define all those values and system will automatically paints a combo for selection at the time of data entry. Scripts also provide form level and field level triggers for inserting user code for some manipulation.
