ScanFix Application提供了功能强大的文件图像增强技术,用于创建体积更小更简洁的图像,并最终获得更高的OCR速度。ScanFix Application提供了多种图像处理的方法:抗扭斜、旋转、清除黑色或者白色边框、消除燥点、清除点偏差、清除直线及文本修复。ScanFix支持多种常规的黑白图像格式,包括TIFF G3/G4, PCX, DCX, CALS等.
The ScanFix Application provides powerful document image enhancement technology to create smaller file sizes and cleaner images, ultimately resulting in higher OCR rates. Clean up images using deskew, rotate, black or white border removal, noise removal, dot shading removal, line removal, and text repair. ScanFix supports a wide variety of popular bitonal image file formats including TIFF G3/G4, PCX, DCX, CALS, and more.
Technical Notes
- Full featured application for Microsoft Windows XP/2000/NT/98
- Easily clean up images
- Easy to use interface
- Free full-featured trial version available for immediate download
Batch Processing
- Enhance up to 32,000 images in a single batch
- Support high-volume scanning and service bureaus needing multiple image processing
- Process multiple directories of images automatically within a single batch
- Apply multiple sets of parameters in defined order
- Batches can be daisy chained for unattended processing overnight
Deskew
- Automatically straighten crooked images
- Handles up to 20% skew
- Deskew images in a fraction of a second
- Uses content of the images, not just the document edge
Noise Removal
- Remove random specks or noise from images
- Configurable user specification of speck size
- Special Isolated Despeckle algorithm prevents removal of desired dots such as punctuation
Dot Shading Removal
- Automatically remove dot shading surrounding text for improved OCR accuracy
- Remove scanner noise caused by colored backgrounds (gray, blue, etc.)
- Reduce files sizes caused by additional pixels, without destroying text

Blob Removal
- Remove large areas of specks and noise
- Use to eliminate larger areas of black
- Remove hole punches

Line Removal
- Automatically remove solid or broken lines (both horizontal and vertical) from scanned forms and documents
- Automatically repair text that intersects with lines (fill broken characters), essential for forms processing
Character Completion & Smoothing
- Repair, smooth and thicken incomplete characters
- Repair broken characters
- Improve poor dot matrix text
- Smooth ragged edges on letters
- Thicken or thin letters as needed

Inverse Text Correction
- Detect and automatically convert inverted text zones
- Change white-on-black text to normal black-on-white text
- Recognize inverse zones in any shape, including circular
- Remove the fill color of text
- Reduce file sizes by eliminating unnecessary black pixels

Compression & File Formats
- Supports a wide variety of popular bitonal image file formats
- TIFF (non-tiled): Uncompressed, 1-D & 2-D Group 3, Group 4
- Single Page
- Multi-Page, including those created by major forms-processing applications such as: Calera, ScanSoft, OCRON, ExperVision, Xerox
- PCX (bitonal only), DCX
- CALS Type 1 (Group 4 raster)
- Maximum image size: 20,000 x 20,000 pixels
- Any image resolution
- Input/Output: TIFF, CALS, PCX, or BMP
Image Registration
- Automatically straighten your image
- Automatically position an image (horizontally or vertically) to specific pixel distances
- Enhanced algorithm allows you to ignore hole punches or logos
- Add margins for reprinting and binding documents
- Enables field and zone data to be extracted with extreme accuracy
- Positions the image to within 1/100 of an inch on average

Intelligent Crop
- Automatically convert black borders to white
- Remove excess white borders
- Reduce image file size (both physical dimensions and compressed file size)
- Use on microfilm or small document images that have been overscanned

Sub-Image Processing
- Separate out an area from the original document image prior to image processing
- Speeds up processing and outputs only the smaller area of interest
View and Magnify Images
- View example images to help configure your batches
- Magnify images in a variety of ways to see fine details
- Measure spec and character sizes to ensure accurate settings
- Zoom in/out at any increment (25% default, configurable)
- Stretch box zooms on a selected portion of the image
- Flying magnifier works just like a magnifying glass over paper by magnifying the area directly beneath the magnifier tool
