A few months back, we did a white paper on Check Processing. Today, we published a new Check Processing Video showing off this exciting and powerful technology. In addition to the Check Processing SDK, it also shows off the Perspective Deskew function which will correct images taken ad odd angles from mobile devices.

We hope you enjoy the video. We plan on keeping them coming regularly, so if there are any specific LEADTOOLS features you want to see highlighted on our YouTube channel, please let us know!

As part of the LEAD Technologies 25th anniversary, we are creating 25 projects in 25 days to celebrate LEAD's depth of features and ease of use. Today's project comes from Joe.

What is Does

This Objective-C project will process images using LEADTOOLS Version 18.

Have you ever been working on a zonal OCR project only to discover that the scanned documents were too different from the original document for OCR to be of any practical use? Some differences such as resolution and skew angle can be algorithmically corrected, but what if the zones themselves change in size? What if the data you want to capture is tabular in nature and has an unknown number of rows?

LEADTOOLS introduced its Invoice Recognition and Processing SDK technology in Version 19 to address this very problem. To learn more, check out our latest white paper which explains how to set up and use LEADTOOLS to recognize data from unstructured documents, invoices and more.

Forms recognition is a common requirement for document imaging projects. Therefore it is no surprise that there are many companies and services that provide a solution for it. With that in mind, what sets LEADTOOLS apart? Forms alignment is one of the key features that catapults LEADTOOLS Forms Recognition above other products because it offers the best accuracy across the widest gamut of devices and documents.

We have had a number of customers approach us with documents that, to the human eye, appeared to be clean and properly scanned. However, the results still failed to return accurate results. In some cases, the exact same piece of paper would produce offbeat results when using different scanners. In the following white paper we will explain several alignment problems which LEADTOOLS can automatically correct and produce better accuracy than the competition.

Forms Recognition and Processing has continued to be an intense area of interest from our customers looking for in-depth solutions to their unique scenarios. Some of the most recent inquiries have revolved around what to do when your company uses hundreds or even thousands of master forms. In most cases, bottle-necks occur at the front end with the number of forms that need to be recognized and processed. That is to be expected for a large, thriving business, but when more and more form templates are added to the equation it can really start to bog down the classification step.

There are many ways to approach this, and this white paper illustrates four different solutions; each of which can be combined with one another to give you the most flexible and efficient forms recognition application possible. Even if an over abundance of master forms doesn't exactly describe or match your environment, this white paper is still a great read since its principles can help speed up ANY forms recognition application regardless of your repository size.
