PaperlessOffice Custom Edition is the choice when
Imaging Enablig an Existing application is the objective.
Most companies and organizations have customized
applications already in place handling many of their daily work
requirements. These applications are highly productive because they are
tailored specifically for the business, but lack the ability to handle
mission critical Document Management. Custom Edition allows the seamless
integration of Imaging and Document Management into most any existing
application by Imaging Enabling them. This allows
your organization to utilize your existing application and its database
structure to capture and retrieve Documents at the touch of a key. This
saves time and expense on training and implementation, while also allowing
your organization to almost immediately realize the benefits of this
technology.
PaperlessOffice Custom Edition gives A.I.T. the ability
to write custom applications for companies who wish to control the
Graphical User Interface (GUI) and Flow of their Imaging Product. It also
gives the customer the option of owning the rights and
source code to distribute their application with certain licensing
restrictions. Using components, which are available both as applications
and as tools, custom applications and workflow products can be built

Building A Complete Solution
Using PaperlessOffice Custom Edition, we can develop
production-level applications that speed the indexing of images, increase
OCR accuracy, and decrease overall image file size to make your
application a cost effective and efficient document management solution.
Custom Edition provides ActiveX and VBX controls for scanning, automated
recognition, image cleanup, forms processing, viewing, and printing of
images.
Scanning
PaperlessOffice Custom Edition supports all of the
industry's leading production document scanners at rated speed. Custom
Edition supports color, grayscale, and black and white scanning. Images
can also be imported directly from disk in a variety of file formats.
There are ten common dialogs, ready for integration, for users to set
scanner settings. Other features include support for:
- Auto-blank page deletion
- Forms Recognition
- Bar Codes and Patch Code Recognition
- Auto rotation (independent rotation angles for front and back sides
of a duplex image)
- Auto-length detection
- Independent picking rectangles for front and back sides of duplex
images
- Text annotation and endorsing
Automated Recognition
PaperlessOffice Custom Edition speeds the processing of
documents that contain patch codes and bar codes by automatically
recognizing and translating the coded data each contains.
Patch Code Recognition.
Custom Edition will detect and recognize up to six
unique patch codes types. Patch code can be used to recognize changes in
batches, stop the scanner for manual setting adjustment, or to signify any
unique attributes in a set of documents.
Bar Code Recognition.
Custom Edition will recognize ten different bar code types, including
situations where there are different bar codes on the same page. Custom
Edition can process up to 64 different bar codes on any document, no
matter their orientation on the document.
Image Cleanup
Custom Edition provides improved image quality for OCR
processing through a variety of image cleanup controls.
Black Border Removal
Performed simultaneously with scanning, this feature
eliminates the black edges generated by scanners with black backgrounds.
Performing this process reduces the image file size while improving
legibility.
Deskew
In order to correct image skew created during scanning,
the Deskew function employs an algorithm that compensates for image skew
and corrects it to a full 100-degree orientation. The deskew feature does
not require lines or leading edge borders to operate.
Speckle, Shade and Streak Removal
These modules eliminate random noise (speckles and
streaks) as well as shaded backgrounds either present on the original
document or generated at time of scan.
Line Removal
Implementing this function serves to eliminate all
unwanted horizontal and vertical lines. Features within the module enable
developers to provide automatic character repair when desired text and
unwanted lines intersect.
Image Filtering
This module can be used to perform a variety of
enhancements on lines and characters. Lines and characters can be
smoothed, thickened, thinned, filled or outlined in order to make them
more legible and recognizable.
Forms Recognition
PaperlessOffice Custom Edition can recognize scanned
images of forms by comparing them against a catalog of master forms.
Complex algorithms enable Custom Edition to learn the properties of each
master form, perform page registration, and return a list of the most
likely matches.
