How do you maximize your scanning productivity?
If you are capturing the information from paper documents and forms as an important part of your overall information management strategy, then it is important to use the best document scanning software to help automate the process and increase productivity.
DCS can supply VirtualReScan® from Kofax® to help automate your scanning process.
The patented VRS technology from Kofax® ensures that your scanning is as efficient and easy as possible, while also improving both the quality of the scanned images and the automated capture of information from your paper documents and forms. The result is lower scanning costs, lower data entry costs, and faster access to your information.
VirtualReScan® enables you to handle a wide variety of documents and forms. This scanning software can cope with a mixture of coloured paper, unusual document sizes, hard-to-read carbon copies and even photocopies of photocopies.
Feeding a stack of these documents into a standard scanner gives poor results. Some of the images will be too dark, too light, crooked or otherwise illegible. These images are unacceptable for compliant archives and almost useless for automated business processing. That means you need data entry operators to manually key in and correct the poor results, or you need to rescan the documents to get better images, or both.
Without using VirtualReScan® you can improve your chances of getting good images by carefully preparing your documents before scanning. A very time consuming and expensive process, involving manually separating colour documents from black and white, organizing them by size and condition, removing blank pages and rotating pages so they are all oriented in the same direction. Then the scanner settings must be manually adjusted for each type of document, the documents scanned, and then rescanned– possibly multiple times – until each one is of a satisfactory quality.
DCS can help you make document scanning a more automated business process with VirtualReScan®.
VirtualReScan makes scanning as automated, efficient and easy as possible, while dramatically improving image quality. For more information,

The Benefits are Clear
 |
Perfect Images: Scanning
is only half the battle. The most important
part about capturing images is your ability
to find, retrieve and use them later. The
superior quality of VRS-created images means
documents are easier to index and easier to
read. |
 |
Improved Recognition: Since
VRS automatically straightens and cleans each
scanned image, the accuracy of your optical
character recognition and handwriting recognition
software increases dramatically. |
 |
Internet-Ready Images:
Noisy backgrounds and shaded areas are suppressed,
resulting in ultra-compact image files ideal
for display and rapid retrieval on your Web
site. |
 |
Rescanning Eliminated:
One of the most time-consuming tasks in scanning
is actually rescanning -- putting documents
back through the scanner and adjusting scanner
settings until an acceptable image is obtained.
VRS performs all enhancements in real-time
-- no more rescanning. |
 |
Ease of Use: Scanning remains
simple and easy with VRS. Operators do not
need special knowledge of scanning, resolution
or image enhancement. They just press the
scan button, and VRS does the rest. |
There are dozens of VRS Ready scanners available
today, and the list is growing. VRS is compatible
with all applications based on Kofax ImageControls,
including Kofax Ascent Capture as well as applications
from Adobe, Captiva, Cardiff, Eastman Software,
FileNET, Microsystems Technology and ReadSoft.
And Software VRS 4 also supports ISIS®-
and TWAIN-based scan applications.
