OCR (Optical Character Recognition)

A scanned document is stored as an image. The text is not recognized beyond being a readable picture of the page. OCR is the process that produces text from that scanned image. OCR makes a document's text searchable. The OCR text file can be edited or re-used in a word processing program, which saves re-keying time. Accuracy of the OCR process is generally close to 95%, but can vary depending on the quality of the paper document and the font size.

We take your paper documents, scan them at 150 - 600 dpi, depending on the quality of the printed text. We then run the digitized image through our OCR Software, which produces an editable version of the digital image. We save the file into a Word Format, or other formats such as Microsoft Works, Excel or PDF.

We have two levels of OCR:
Level 1: As Is
Level 2: Maintain layout and font style
