What is document imaging?
Document imaging is the process of scanning paper documents, converting them to digital images that are then stored on CD, DVD, or other magnetic storage. With Microsoft Office Document Imaging, you can scan paper documents and convert them to digital images that you can save in Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) (Tagged ImageFile Format (TIFF): A high-resolution, tag-based graphics format. TIFF is used for the universal interchange of digital graphics.) or Microsoft Document Imaging Format(MDI) (Microsoft Document Imaging Format (MDI) : A high resolution, tag-based graphics format, based on the Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) used for digital graphics.) to your computer’s hard disk, network server, CD, or DVD. Microsoft Office Document Imaging also gives you the ability to perform optical character recognition (OCR) (OCR:Translates images of text, such as scanned documents, into actual text characters, Also known as text recongnition.) either as part of scanning a document, or while you work with a TIFF or MDI file. By performing OCR, you can then copy recognized text from a scanned image or a fax into a Microsoft Word document or other Office progam file.
