LuraDocument optimizes document handling from incoming mail to archiving original-like copies
(Berlin/Essen) During this year's DMS trade show, LuraTech GmbH will demonstrate
how organizations can optimize the processing of incoming (at the Kodak booth in
Hall 1, Stand 1650). The basis for this is the LuraDocument software solution,
which separates text portions of scanned documents from other content, such as
logos and background graphics, thus facilitating OCR processing. Since the OCR
software must only interpret straight text information without background color
interference, the results are more accurate. Text recognition rates are increased
considerably, resulting in much less manual correction afterward.
When the documents are saved, LuraDocument recombines the text and color information
and compresses the files in the standards-compliant LuraDocument JPM or PDF format.
The result is digital documents that look like their originals but have very small
file sizes.
The DMS trade show will once again be held in Essen this year from September 27 to 29.
Growing numbers of organizations have begun to scan their incoming mail as it is
received in order to make it available for subsequent digital processing.
High-performance OCR solutions are used to recognize data contained in the documents
and make it available to networked back office systems such as ERP software.
Better text recognition through color elimination
Most of the paper documents that cause difficulties in text recognition are in
color. LuraDocument from LuraTech GmbH separates the text from background images
and color prior to OCR processing. The effect of separation makes images optimized
by LuraDocument superior to black and white scans, with better OCR results.
Documents like the originals with the smallest possible size
When the documents are saved afterward, LuraDocument recombines the text and
color information and compresses the files in the standards-compliant LuraDocument
JPM or PDF format. The OCR result can be saved directly in the files.All color
information from the original documents is present in the digital image. Thus,
for example, the color of a pen used to sign a document or test passages marked
with a highlighter can be seen clearly, providing critical support for OCR
post-processing and the entire subsequent workflow in the organization.
Yet full color LuraDocument JPM or PDF files are only as big as those in black
and white Fax G4 TIFF format. But even organizations that work only with black
and white documents can benefit from black and white scans that are compressed
to half the size of Fax G4 TIFF files.
