Introduction

This guide gives you instructions for installing the hardware and software components of
VirtualReScan (VRS).

Product Overview

VRS makes high-volume scanning easier and more cost-effective than ever. With automatic
detection of poor image quality, VRS performs automatic image enhancements that greatly
reduce recognition errors. To ensure that every scanned image can meet your standards, VRS
provides an interactive settings control that eliminates the guesswork with easy, real-time image
correction.

Other features include the ability to scan batches that consist of multiple document sizes or
varying degrees of quality, as well as the ability to automatically assign contrast and brightness
settings that are optimal for your document type. If specified, VRS can even remove color that
may interfere with the data you are collecting. VRS will also detect paper jams, bent corners, and
equipment conflicts. It is no longer necessary to pre-sort mixed batches, and in addition to the
time savings, post-processing accuracy is increased and storage requirements are reduced.

For batch scans in which Optical Character Recognition (OCR) precision is crucial, as it is for
database-bound information, low-contrast documents traditionally pose significant problems.
With VRS, you can enable "Intelligent Contrast / Brightness Adjustment" and process the batch
with confidence, knowing that every low-contrast image will be adjusted automatically to the
acceptable level of quality required for OCR.

In addition to Intelligent Contrast / Brightness Adjustment, VRS offers a range of features to help
you ensure the highest level of quality for every scanned image:

Automatic Deskew Correction

Image Cropping

Accelerated Scanning

Despeckling

Gamma Correction

Character Smoothing

Character Dilation/Erosion
