Document Distribution

Processing hard-copy forms and documents typically requires many manual steps. So why not go beyond simple hard-copy document scanning? Now you can also process information captured from your hard-copy documents and connect it to your back-end systems - automatically and through one simple MFP button.

Manual forms processing often requires multiple steps, making it prone to errors and delays. Want to unlock useful data more easily? As hard-copy document pages are scanned, the Canon solution can be set to recognize different types of forms, then locate and capture isolated information through zonal OCR. That information can be added to the document as metadata, and the resulting file can be automatically named according to specific, captured data fields.

Processing and routing hard-copy documents can be complex and time consuming - especially when your team must handle a large number of documents. With the Canon solution, unique bar codes can be used to identify, process, name, and route batches of forms. This enables your staff to quickly transform paper-based information into editable, digital data that is then accurately routed to predefined destinations.

As hard-copy document pages are scanned, the Canon solution can be set to recognize specific zones on forms. That information can be added to the document as metadata and also added to an existing record in a database. The solution helps reduce errors, improve accuracy, and eliminates the need for a dedicated forms processing station and specialist.
