Nuance introduces OmniPage 17
May 15, 2009:Nuance promises a 40% boost in scanning accuracy with OmniPage Professional 17, the latest version of its document conversion and scanning application for Windows users.
It puts scanning and document conversion directly into Microsoft Office, by integrating a “Direct OCR” button with Word, Excel and PowerPoint.
OmniPage 17 lets users capture paper documents, articles and signs using the built-in cameras on mobile phones, such as the Apple iPhone and other devices. The enhancedOmniPage 3D-Capture technology automatically corrects for distortions caused by images that are misaligned, with the images then accurately turned into editable text and searchable PDF documents.
The new release includes support for various eBook and PDF formats, as well as the first-ever “Scan-to-Kindle” feature, with documents automatically re-formatted specifically for easy reading and navigating using the Kindle 2 form-factor.
“The productivity benefits delivered by Microsoft Office and Office SharePoint Server 2007 are readily accessible when organizations are able to easily move paper into a digital process,” said Owen Allen, Sr. Product Manager for SharePointISV Partners. “OmniPage 17 provides an important paper-to-digital bridge, enabling organizations to use highly accurate conversion to turn paper and PDF into the open XML formats used by Microsoft Office and Office SharePoint Server 2007.”
OmniPage Professional 17 is $US499.99 for individual users, with volume discounts available.
