eCopy Image Enhancement Extender
Processing paper documents is a labor intensive and hence a costly 
endeavor. Companies can automate the processing of stacks of paper 
documents by combining document imaging with optical character 
recognition (OCR) technology. However, the precision of OCR translation  
and the ability to automate the process depends to a large degree on  
image quality.
eCopy Image Enhancement Extender will maximize your investment in the 
eCopy ShareScan
®
 document imaging solution by preprocessing scanned 
documents to produce a “clean” image free of imperfections. OCR and 
barcode automation then precisely translate the contents of the image into 
machine-readable and editable text, dramatically reducing manual exception 
reporting. eCopy Image Enhancement Extender is an add-on Extender that 
is used in conjunction with eCopy ShareScan and transparently runs as 
a background process to improve image quality. It can be run with other 
Extender software, such as eCopy Barcode Recognition, Cost Recovery,  
or Bates Numbering as well as with any Connector.
