Over the years, our continuing expertise in this field has enabled us to develop our own OCR application engines which allow us to OCR even the most difficult and unstructured files into highly organised and fully formatted OCR scanned documents.

OCR SCANNING PROCESS

Prior to starting an OCR scanning and conversion process, it is important to understand the document types, document structure, document formatting, data type, e.g. whether the document contains plain text, tables, pictures, flow charts, diagrams, mathematical equations, chemical formulas, unique fonts and language. As well as English, the OCR process can also be carried out for all major European and worldwide languages. Once the document, data assessment and the output format are analysed, the OCR scanning process begins.

Prior to embarking on the OCR scanning process, our OCR scanning and conversion bureau prepares sample's of OCR scanned and converted documents which are provided to our client so they can be reviewed beforehand. This is a valuable exercise which allows for any amendments to be made and enables fine tuning of the end product. Only when the client is satisfied, the OCR scanning process begins. During the project, our client is regularly updated with sample documents which are reviewed and verified to ensure the highest level of quality OCR scanning and conversion is produced by our team.

OCR SCANNING BENEFITS

OCR scanning offers a number of tangible benefits, as opposed to manually typing or inputting data. OCR technology has significantly grown and improved for the past few years and now offers fast and accurate OCR converted files. Depending on the document quality and data types, after the configuration process and the setting up of OCR data type parameters, 99% of the OCR scanning is an automated process. The main advantage of OCR is that it eliminates data entry errors and mishaps which are more likely when data is typed manually. With proven evidence that OCR scanning is 99.99% accurate, the demand for this type of conversion is steadily increasing.
