OpenText has announced Capture for Microsoft SharePoint, a software solution to capture, digitise and fully index paper documents, forms and faxes and move them into SharePoint.

It can be used to import other types of content including faxes, email with attached documents, images, business forms, and complex multipart documents.

It supports a variety of capture scenarios including ad-hoc or desktop scanning, high-volume batch and distributed scanning and full-text capture servers.

Captured paper documents are then converted to searchable digital documents using Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR). Users can extract any missing or required meta and business data using patented Single Click Entry technology.
