|
Noise Removal |
- Remove random specks or noise from images
- Configurable user specification of speck size
- Special Isolated Despeckle algorithm prevents removal of desired dots such as punctuation
|
|
Dot Shading Removal |
- Automatically remove dot shading surrounding text for improved OCR accuracy
- Remove scanner noise caused by colored backgrounds (gray, blue, etc.)
- Reduce files sizes caused by additional pixels, without destroying text

|
Line Removal |
- Automatically remove solid or broken lines (both horizontal and vertical) from scanned forms and documents
- Automatically repair text that intersects with lines (fill broken characters), essential for forms processing
|
|
Character Completion & Smoothing |
- Repair, smooth and thicken incomplete characters
- Repair broken characters
- Improve poor dot matrix text

Image Registration |
- Automatically straighten your image
- Automatically position an image (horizontally or vertically) to specific pixel distances
- Enhanced algorithm allows you to ignore hole punches or logos
- Add margins for reprinting and binding documents
- Enables field and zone data to be extracted with extreme accuracy
- Positions the image to within 1/100 of an inch on average

Intelligent Crop |
- Automatically convert black borders to white
- Remove excess white borders
- Reduce image file size (both physical dimensions and compressed file size)
- Use on microfilm or small document images that have been overscanned

Sub-Image Processing |
- Separate out an area from the original document image prior to image processing
- Speeds up processing and outputs only the smaller area of interest
|
|
View and Magnify Images |
- View example images to help configure your batches
- Magnify images in a variety of ways to see fine details
- Measure spec and character sizes to ensure accurate settings
- Zoom in/out at any increment (25% default, configurable)
- Stretch box zooms on a selected portion of the image
- Flying magnifier works just like a magnifying glass over paper by magnifying the area directly beneath the magnifier tool
