Scanning

Imaging
As part of post scanning process, a scanned image is edited to create better quality image output. Usually an illustration is captured in resolutions of 50 dpi, 300 dpi and 600 dpi. The imaging process includes:

  • Edit image. Eliminate moirĂ©, bleed-through of ink from text, image, watermark, pen mark, stain such as ink and rust
  • Create and add background to a picture
  • Manipulate raw picture which involve masking, cloning and color correction
  • Create shadows for image object
  • Animate the manipulated picture with special coding

Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
The scanned image is read and converted into editable text. The text generated by OCR is used for further processes to convert document into tagged format and database creation.

Data Conversion
Convert digital text to HTML, SGML, XML or any other desired format using our proprietary tool. We use customer specified DTD (Document Type Definition) or a Public DTD for converting to SGML, XML or any other desired format.

Citation Tagging
Citations allow creation of online search based on bibliographic information say search through ISSN, ISBN, Author, etc. Information is captured to identify a publication such as a book or journal. Details include author, title, date of publication, journal title (if applicable), volume and page numbers. A bibliographic database is created using captured citations.

Defining Meta Data
The metadata allows easy search of documents from the database for search engine purposes or catalog information. Key identification details of the document are captured in the SGML/XML/HTML format. For example, in a legal document, the key details may include case party name, advocate name, judgment date etc.
