VPindex is the first-class solution for bringing any kind of scanned drawings into EDM (Electronic Document Management) or database systems. In batch mode you can process even thousands of documents automatically. A comprehensive setup "Wizard" will guide users through the following steps:
File selection by directories and wildcards.
Definition of title block templates, incl. cell names.
Definition of an individual "task list", e.g. despeckling, rubber sheeting, rotation, format convertion etc. and Indexing (optíonal text recognition) of title block cell content.
Data transfer to an existing database/Document Management System by ODBC
CD creation
Renaming of files, incl. text from index information
Quick control review of recognized index data before exporting to destination
