Good Afternoon, Janet.

We also utilize the Kofax Ascent OCR for front-end capture.   The patch code separator sheets combined with OCR allowed us to increase the number of automatically populated index fields.   It is still necessary to follow-up with QC, but we were still able to increase our production rates.

  We found that many of our forms were already noisy with data, and since the barcode reads require an area of clean space around it for higher accuracy levels, they were going to take up a bit of space and therefore would not fit.  One of the key factors is if you have in-house control over your documents, or if you are challenged with an influx of various outside documents.

Hope this helps for the analysis.

Subject: Adding Bar Codes to scanning process

In order to make our imaging process more efficient for scanning of  back
file documents we would like to add a barcode to the physical documents
during the imaging process.  The purpose of the bar code is to provide the
Kofax imaging solution and Content Manager a way to determine what type of
document is being scanned and to provide a way to collect standard metadata
for indexing, in order to locate the images during the search and retrieval
process.



<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

We would like to use stickers, however, we are concerned that we are
altering the original document and we are unsure how this would be viewed in
the courts.



Does anyone out there use this type of solution?



Thanks,
