and confidence and rendering the system more intelligent as you go
along. This powerful learning tool also allows you to train Readiris

To increase your productivity further, Readiris not only recognizes
your texts, but can format them for you as well. Various levels of
formatting are available. When you make use of “autoformatting”,

photos or color illustrations. When a document contains tables,
Readiris reorganizes them in real cells and recreates the cell borders
of the original tables.

images.

same goes for handprinted text, provided you write well-spaced
“block letters”.
You can even recognize business cards with Readiris: scan your
business cards, recognize them and convert them into an address
database.
The cards’ data is extracted automatically from the image and the
recognition results are assigned to specific database fields. Readiris
extensively uses a knowledge database, thus acquiring the necessary
intelligence to distinguish between first and last names, cities and
