ECOGNIZING BUSINESS CARDS
I NTRODUCING BUSINESS CARD READING
Next to recognition of "regular" documents, Readiris Corporate also
offers business card recognition.
Readiris allows you to scan business cards, recognize them and
convert them into an address database. By means of OCR (Optical
Character Recognition) the data on business cards is extracted
automatically from the image, converted into editable text and
inserted in the correct database field through field analysis. This
works for 28 countries.
Readiris not only analyzes but also formats the recognized text. The
resulting data can be used in many ways: send contacts to Microsoft
Outlook, Microsoft Outlook Express, Lotus Notes and Palm
Desktop or save them in a structured file e.g. in the vCard format, to
export them to any address database.
Dedicated IRIS business card scanners are available for Readiris.
Contact I.R.I.S. for more information on the IRISCard business
card scanners.
To recognize business cards:
 Click the Document Type button and click Business cards or
Multiple Business Cards in a Single Scan.
