In this digital age, it is easy to get overwhelmed with all\nthe techy terminology. When it comes to document capture, that feeling of being\noverwhelmed can suddenly increase. We totally get that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Umango is a global leader in document scanning, file conversion, and imaging software. Their OCR<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n OCR, or Optical Character Recognition<\/a>,\nlets you convert a variety of types of documents liked scanned papers, PDFs, or\ndigital camera images into searchable data that can also be edited. Say you\nhave a document with a preprinted code that needs to be read, using OCR you can\nsearch for a word or phrase located in different areas of the paperwork. You\ncan also view an area on the document allowing you to highlight the word or\nphrase to be extracted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n OCR can also be used to extract information from images.\nUmango Extract supports zonal OCR giving you smart data extraction and routing\nright at your fingertips. Save time, increase productivity, and improve\naccuracy with umango extract. <\/p>\n\n\n\n PDF<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In 1991, Adobe cofounder Dr. John Warnock created what we now call PDF or Portable Document Format<\/a>. PDFs are used to display documents electronically making them independent of the software, hardware, or system they are viewed on. PDFs offer security, are multi-dimensional, and allow you to virtually edit them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n An awesome and much needed invention that also helps save the environment, PDFs are used daily within businesses. Umango Convert lets you easily convert documents into text-searchable PDFs. Likewise, umango Extract includes PDFs as a supported exported file format. <\/p>\n\n\n\n TIFF<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Tagged\nImage File Format<\/a>, or TIFF is a raster file format for digital\nimages, which can be edited. TIFF is mainly used for editing and storage, like\nstored photos that will be edited to be scanned or printed. TIFF files also\ndon\u2019t compress for smaller files to preserve their quality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Umango Convert will convert your documents into TIFF files,\nwhile umango Extract lets you extract data, from TIFF files, export the file\nand\/or route them to a destination. <\/p>\n\n\n\n FTP<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the oldest protocols still used today, FTP, or File Transfer Protocol is a way of transferring files between computers. Documents can be put into the FTP server your website is hosted on. This makes sharing files and documents a little easier since you can send someone a link to the FTP that has the required documents. <\/p>\n\n\n\n FTP uploads are one of the many connectors umango includes for storing. Using umango\u2019s FTP uploads as a connector can make for easier access to your documents. Data that you extract from a document can also be uploaded to your FTP server using umango Extract. <\/p>\n\n\n\n KFI<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Umango Extract includes Key From Image, which is also known\nas KFI. There will be some documents where data will have to be found with the\nhuman eye. With extract\u2019s KFI function<\/a>,\nyou can zoom into a part of the document or image and type in information you\nsee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n When processing the document, you can manually type the\ninformation or use the lasso OCR tool to read the selected information. With\nthis, there is no limit to how you describe your chosen parts of the document. <\/p>\n\n\n\n ADR<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n ADR, or Auto Document Recognition is a useful function to\ndetect document types. Umango Extract uses ADR to help you detect document\ntypes and extract the data you need from them. You can also use umango Convert\nto convert the document type into the one you need. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Learning all the technical terminology can be a little tricky and time-consuming. Although there are a ton more terms out there, this list will at least you get by when starting to use umango\u2019s document capture software<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Check out our introduction to umango here. ecoprintQ is an authorized solution center dedicated to creating solutions to your print, scan, and fax problems by bringing you the support you need.
