What is Document Image Processing?

Document Image Processing (DIP) is the process of scanning, indexing and digitally storing documents. These documents can then be retrieved by computer for reference whenever needed.

How will this process benefit my company?

You will be able to find any document, with ease, from the PC on your desk.
Information stored on each CD-ROM saves the space occupied by several filing cabinets.

At the time of writing, a 120GB hard drive can be brought for under £150. This will store 4.3 million pages of information – that’s 343 filing cabinets on one computer – all accessible in under a second.

It will prevent loss and misfiling of documents, and eliminates any need for off-site storage.

Your documents will be automatically backed up by virtue of us supplying two copies of every CD-ROM written. Storing one of these copies off-site will satisfy archive disaster recovery needs, as your entire filing system can be recreated in minutes in the case of an emergency.

Digital document storage provides multi-level indexing of data, for easy, secure retrieval of documents, and networking of the file base.

Is it expensive to start up?

No, because there is no need to invest in special equipment – you only need a computer.

Is it difficult to use?

No, we have designed it with the user in mind. Even if you have very limited computer experience, you will still find it easy and straight forward to use.

Our digital bureau service ensures there is no extra work for your staff – we do it all for you.

What can be scanned?

Anything. If it is on paper, we can scan it. We can scan documents from the size of a bus ticket to 36" in width.
