9. Image Optimization for the Distributed Enterprise
Prepares Images to Deliver Superior Accuracy: Cleaner images
produce cleaner data. NovoImage+ removes background noise, refines
character edges and automatically adjusts contrast to improve
recognition.
Standardizes Quality: A device-agnostic solution, NovoImage+ can
apply the same rigorous standards to images captured by a wide variety
of peripherals.
Puts the User in Control: Rather than relying solely on device-specific
presets, users can adjust default settings to optimize output for different
image sources or document types.
Boosts Productivity: Improved images yielding greater accuracy
accelerate workflow by alleviating the need for human intervention to
correct errors, plus fewer false positives will result on data to be verified.
Reduces File Size: NovoImage+ can reduce document image file size
for more rapid file transfer, more economical storage and more efficient
archiving.
Automates Pre-Processing: Automated file and batch processing
frees up workers for other tasks.
