For some service providers, digitising documents and books for reproduction or archiving is a cost-intensive, unproductive job, while for others it is a lucrative customer order.
The main difference is that most systems for scanning are not up to the challenge. Either the scanner cannot handle auto-segmentation of text and halftone images-page-by-page at high scan rate, or the software for preparation and make-ready of scanned pages is cumbersome or inadequate. Often, more than one software application must be used to perform all the functions required to obtain the final result.
Examples of such functions are automated deskewing, putting all pages in register, fully automated processes driven by macros and hot folders, and import of images and pages in a wide variety of file formats.
New from Oc'e South Africa is an entire scan solution consisting of a new Oc'e high-speed scanner and an integrated multifunctional software program. Oc'e ScanStation 650 comprises the Oc'e Document Scanner DS10 and Oc'e DocSetter software - an advanced tool for scanning and editing hardcopy documents.
Ideally, you need perfect data to make high quality prints. However, when the data you receive from customer applications - or scanned data - is less than perfect, Oc'e DocSetter will improve this substantially. Oc'e DocSetter is a powerful scan and make-ready software ensuring that books, brochures and loose-leaf documents can be digitised, edited and reproduced with high quality.
Key features of Oc'e DocSetter include open architecture right at the beginning of the workflow as well as a state-of-the-art user interface with specialised sub-windows and thumbnail viewing technology for accurate editing, viewing and assembling of documents and books. An impressive suite of functions such as crop, clean-up, mask, precision alignment and debanding optimises the quality of scanned data. Oc'e DocSetter supports monochrome, Oc'e CustomTone (highlight colour) and full colour images, drawings and text. All major file formats are supported, including PS, PDF, TIFF, JPEG and many more.
Oc'e DocSetter is capable of driving the new Oc'e Document Scanner DS10 and other TWAIN compatible scanners. The Oc'e DS10 offers high scan speeds of 56 A4 images per minute simplex or 44 A4 images per minute duplex.
With applications in document print centres, digital print providers and the graphics art industry, Oc'e Scanstation 650 enables users to accept digital or analogue data and turn it into a quality document.
