 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.
