IdeaGen Root intelligent document scanning software with Kodak scanners capture individual items of data automatically.

Data capture is faster with improved accuracy to automated input, final file creation and database building.

Document scanning doesn’t just have to generate whole pages—individual items of data can be identified and automated calculations undertaken as part of the data capture process. Documents can be indexed and sorted for storage or forwarded electronically to you for further processing.
Single or double-sided, any size up to A3: Our scanners can handle your documents.

  • Scan whole pages
  • Identify words and numbers automatically
  • Capture barcodes automatically
  • Responses to answers in tick boxes automatically
  • Offer recognition of hand-printed text

  • The results of using document scanning for data capture are:
  • Your documents are indexed to match your original files for easy checking
  • Papers can be numbered making it easy to find the image at a later date
