"I truly believe that this gives us a competitive advantage within the marketplace," said Ken Peterka, Captovation's President and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. . "We now provide native scanning interfaces for both Kofax Adrenaline adrenaline (ədrĕn`əlĭn, –lēn): see epinephrine. (R) and ISIS, a fact that some of our major competitors cannot state. We are able to offer support for the unique capabilities of each platform with no bias towards either scanner technology. Our resellers and customers now have a choice when purchasing eCapture." ISIS(R) is a software driver technology designed by Pixel Translations (www.pixtran.com). ISIS provides a standard interface to document scanners An optical scanner geared to office documents rather than photographs. Also called "office scanners," "enterprise scanners" and "business scanners," desktop models have automatic document feeders that can scan in the range of approximately 15 to 100 pages per minute. along with a variety of image processing image processing Set of computational techniques for analyzing, enhancing, compressing, and reconstructing images. Its main components are importing, in which an image is captured through scanning or digital photography; analysis and manipulation of the image, accomplished features. ISIS has become the "de-facto" standard within the document imaging industry. As a result, most document scanner manufacturers provide ISIS drivers with their scanners. With this new ISIS integration, ecScan now supports over 250 document scanner models. Previously, ecScan for eCapture only supported the Adrenaline and VRS (Video Relay Service) A communications service for the hearing or speech impaired. A VRS is the video counterpart of a TTY relay service, in which the user types on a terminal, and the relay operator speaks the messages to the recipient (see TDD/TTY). (R) (VirtualReScan) scanning interfaces developed by Kofax (www.kofax.com). Adrenaline and VRS are available in both software and hardware (Video or SCSI SCSI in full Small Computer System Interface Once common standard for connecting peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, etc.) to small and medium-sized computers. SCSI has given way to faster standards, such as Firewire and USB. card) versions. The new version of ecScan will help to reduce overall system costs by eliminating the need to purchase Adrenaline engines when technology such as VRS is not required. Nonetheless, Captovation will continue to offer long-term support for Adrenaline and VRS technology. This new version of ecScan also features document image thumbnail support. After scanning a batch of documents, users can review the batch and see thumbnails of every image. Thumbnails can be displayed in three different sizes, so that they can be enlarged enough to distinguish document types. ecScan thumbnails also have drag-and-drop functionality, which gives users the ability to easily re-order images within a batch. Image Processing features - including bar code and patch code recognition, blank page deletion, black border removal, hole removal, cropping, deskew, and others - are also included with this new version. Captovation will be demonstrating the new version of ecScan and the entire eCapture product line in booth number 428 at the 2003 ARMA Conference and Exposition in Boston from October 19th through October 21st. ecScan and the rest of the eCapture product suite can be purchased through Captovation's eCapture Certified Resellers.
