"Last March, we not only announced the redesign of our Micro Dynamics MARS product suite to take advantage of the cross-platform capabilities of Windows NT (Windows New Technology) A 32-bit operating system from Microsoft for Intel x86 CPUs.

Kofax's Accent Capture is an advanced document-capture application that integrates high-performance batch scanning for a wide range of scanners, image-processing, Zonal Optical Character Recognition (OCR OCR in full optical character recognition Scanning and comparison technique intended to identify printed text or numerical data. It avoids the need to retype already printed material for data entry. ) and document indexing of up to 100,000 documents per day in a single package. From initial scanning, through OCR to indexing and final release of documents to MARS/NT, Accent Capture uses advanced technology to manage and streamline the entire input process.
