Mid-Volume Capture Software 

Mid-Volume Capture Software supports Scanners 3500, 3510, 3520, and Color Scanners 3590C and 4500. The capture Software is designed for speed, accuracy, and ease of use. It enables optimum scanner throughput and maximum operator productivity. A high-speed, multi-page display presents images de-skewed and auto-cropped for legibility. A complete set of icon-based tools is available at a mouse click to simplify scanning management.

Capture Software is a 32-bit program that takes full advantage of the superior performance of fast single and multi-processor PCs under the Microsoft Windows NT and 2000 Operating Environments. Meanwhile, the icon-based toolbar, context-sensitive menus, and the on-line tool tips reduce the need for training and memorization. Capture Software can also be used under the Microsoft Windows 95 and 98 Operating Environment.

Primary Features of the Mid Volume Capture Software

• An easy-to-use user interface minimizes operator training the ability to start production document scanning in less than 2 hours recognition of 13 different types of bar codes, including the high density PDF417 bar code, on both front and rear images
• Use of bar codes for indexing, automatic image rotation and batch or document separation
• A special output format for CD authoring index files at the batch and document level
• Document and batch separation input from patch, bar codes, and blank pages
• Multiple native scan structures
• Multiple batch output formats the ability to fit an image to window display mode
• Automatic batch separation based on a defined number of documents
• Automatic document separation based on a defined number of pages

Additional Features of the Mid Volume Capture Software

• Save Time and Labor with this Powerful Capture Tool
• Capture Software maximizes your capture throughput by minimizing the need for operator involvement to make images available to your imaging system, CD authoring, or scan-to-Web applications.
• Multi-image display shows up to eight images at a time, making it easier to visualize a multi-page document and enable image quality verification during scanning.
• Fast image-fit mode performs dynamic zooming to show every image as large as possible in each window.
• Auto cropping eliminates black borders from around images, enabling users to scan mixed-size originals without changing any scanning parameters.
• Automatic deskew straightens images on-the-fly during scanning to minimize post-scan editing.
• Auto rotation (90°, 180°, 270°) supports landscape scanning to maximize scanner throughput.
• Auto blank page deletion during scanning or post-processing eliminates the need to presort batches into single- and double-sided originals.
• Blank Page Separation allows batch and document separation or automatic creation of an attachment by inserting a blank page before the batch, document or attachment.
• Image manipulation and editing tools let users rescan, rotate, reorder, and delete pages.
• Merge front and rear combines both sides of a page into a single image immediately visible on the screen.
• Split front and rear splits very long documents into smaller images, two per side (total of four) or three per side (total of six), to simplify OCR processing of survey, census, application forms, etc. For example, the software can automatically convert one A3 page into two A4 pages. The effect is visible on the screen immediately.
• User profiles and profile groups to control access to specific applications and Capture Software features and capabilities.
• Integrated software barcode engine reading 13 types of barcodes in all orientations:

Fast Flexible Indexing

A choice of indexing options allows you to configure indexing according to the requirements of your application. You can capture index data from bar codes while scanning, or key enter data from images or original documents. Automatic data capture from bar codes drastically reduces the need to perform key entry from scanned images or originals.

Capture Software allows to define up to 10 different index fields with each a length of up to 100 positions. Fields can be defined as text, date or numeric fields. An extensive range of default values is available to populate index fields automatically. Examples : scan date and time, operator name, batch name, document number, page setup name, etc.

Write Directly to CD

The index can be sent to your imaging application and/or written directly to a CD, complete with a viewer and retrieval application. The resulting self-contained "image system on a disc" can be stored, distributed, or easily duplicated as an alternative for traditional micro-publishing applications. The free CD viewer (CDVue) is available in 9 languages (Dansk, Deutsch, English, Español, Français, Italiano, Nederlands, Português dol Brasil and Svenska).

Enhanced Indexing of Barcodes

Enhanced index options enable you to split a bar code value over several fields or combine several default or bar code values in one. The special [Last Value] default value allows to duplicate a field until it is manually changed or automatically changed by means of a bar code. Capture Software also supports field validity through mask formulas and check digit exits.

Use Capture Software as a scannerless indexing station to index batches created with a scan station running Capture Software. Any of the Capture Software types can be configured as a standalone indexing station, but usually the least expensive LVCS version will be selected to perform indexing or index correction.

Batch Output Formats

Capture Software features a range of batch output formats for compatibility with popular document management systems.
