SOURCE ecoprintQ From large companies to small offices, this software helps everyone work smarter and not harder. Let’s say your boss hands you a 50-page hardcopy of your department policies and tells you they need to be updated. There is no electronic original, so this task would involve hours of retyping the entire document to then start making the necessary changes.  That sounds like a lot of hard work! What if you could scan the entire document and have that convert into a document that you could edit. What would take hours just turned into a push of the scanner button! Now that’s working smarter.

What is OCR?

OCR is a software tool that allows you to convert scanned documents into text searchable files that you can change, copy, edit and basically do anything you regularly do to text. It is now increasingly common for documents to be scanned so that they can be conveniently viewed and shared electronically.

However, a scan is merely an image capture of the original document, so it cannot be edited or searched through in any way. This results in a decrease in efficiency since employees now have to manually correct or search through multiple pages. OCR solves this problem by making the document text searchable.
