Scanning – OCR, Forms, Photo


Scanning is pretty useful, you can take hard copy of images text and forms and turn it into a digital version that can be edited, posted on the internet, or in the case of forms filled out.

OCR( Optical Character Recognition) allows you to scan text from any hard copy source, magazines, letters, books, or reports. This is an extremely useful technology, you can take any thing that is printed and convert it to a text document.

Omni Form is a really cool program that allows you to scan a form and then fill it out on computer and then print it off. This allows you to fill out forms in an extremely neat and tidy manor.

Photo scanning is nice for many reason, you can save and manage your personal photos, you can edit images, and do a variety of other creative projects.
