PaperStream Capture Pro is an advanced software solution designed to convert paper documents and imported digital files into organized, searchable digital data that is ready for any document-management system. It efficiently handles batch scanning with any TWAIN-compatible scanner, ranging from simple desktop models to high-capacity enterprise devices, and incorporates sophisticated image-processing features to enhance scanned images automatically by eliminating noise, correcting skew or rotation, adjusting color discrepancies, and improving overall clarity, which significantly boosts OCR accuracy and readability. The software excels in data extraction with capabilities that include full-text OCR, zonal OCR, barcode and patch-code reading, as well as optical-mark-recognition and handprint recognition for handling handwritten text or checkboxes. Furthermore, it can extract multiple fields from each document, such as information from forms, applications, or surveys, and can intelligently separate documents in mixed batches using methods like blank page detection, barcodes, patch codes, or form-template recognition, all while effectively assigning relevant metadata for easier management. This level of automation not only enhances efficiency but also ensures that organizations can streamline their document processes with greater accuracy and speed.
