Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software unlocks the information “trapped” in a PDF or TIF image. OCR software “reads” all the characters in a document and transfers the content to a searchable and editable format.
OCR software lets you turn “image only” PDF or TIF files into searchable documents and extract important data fields.
- OCR PDF or TIF images and make all the text searchable
- Convert PDF or TIF images to Microsoft Word, Excel or Access
- Classify PDF or TIF images by document type
- Extract specific data fields from PDF or TIF files and save to a spreadsheet or database
- Convert PDF or TIF images to other image formats
OCR PDF to a Database
- By extracting key metadata from a PDF document, both data and images can be sent to a database where both can be used for workflows, reports, transactions or archival.
OCR PDF to XML
- Converting PDF documents to XML can save significant amounts of time and effort by extracting required information from the image and converting it to a usable XML format.
