Let OCR integrate faxes into your workflow​

OCR stands for optical character recognition and is a technology that allows PDF documents to be converted into text documents that can be searched and edited. Even in the digital age, faxes have not lost all their importance and are still used widely in a number of areas. The problem: Once scanned, these documents are available as either graphics files or as PDFs that contain only reproduced images and no text content, which means they cannot be integrated into your workflows. The solution is to use OCR to convert these graphics documents into editable PDF documents which allow them to be searched for specific terms and thus capable of being integrated into your company's workflows. webPDF provides the means of creating PDF documents from digitally recorded faxes that not only contain the fax image, but the text content as well.

Countless employees in companies of all types and sizes are struggling with the same everyday problem. The situation of having to screen, process and file faxes and scanned documents is pervasive in today's modern business world.​

Too often corporate information technology departments offer their colleagues either a difficult-to-use solution or none at all for converting scanned documents into searchable PDF files. Now with webPDF such problems are a thing of the past. This web-based software solution combines powerful features with incredibly easy operation.
