With Forms Recognition
customers will possess a feature that incorporates a variety
of forms processing and character recognition support into
comprehensive forms processing and data entry systems. This
tool allows the recognizing and editing of forms, including
targets, fields and base image. Fields may be added to or
deleted from the loaded form, or existing fields may be
modified. Many types of solutions incorporating Forms
recognition will enable pre-processing, reading and post
processing options, which optimize overall recognition,
speed and accuracy.
Intelligent Character
Recognition (ICR) technology can be made available, and can
be tailored to meet specific application requirements. These
functions can be utilized to develop a document processing
application from the ground up or can be easily integrated
into an existing document processing system. Forms
recognition (or forms processing) technology is specifically
designed to extract data from paper or facsimile
questionnaires, applications etc.
The main types of
recognition are:
-
OCR
(Optical Character Recognition)
- for the interpretation
to computer-readable output of machine printed (laser,
dot matrix) alpha numeric characters.
-
ICR
(Intelligent Character
Recognition) - for the interpretation to
computer-readable output of hand printed alpha numeric
characters.
-
OMR (Optical
Mark Recognition) - for the interpretation of whether a
response has been entered based on what amount of the
interior area of a circle or check box was filled in.
-
Barcode
recognition - for the interpretation of horizontally
or vertically printed or affixed bar codes.
With these technologies
companies can reduce their manual data entry processes in
many areas of business, such as
