The template and dictionary matching capabilities of SimpleIndex's OCR function can be used to extract index information from the text of existing MS Office and PDF files, or any file with an accompanying TXT file.  SimpleIndex^® will search the document for matches on unique patterns and value lists, then index the document with the matching data.  Zone coordinates can be set to limit the search area to pre-defined regions on standard forms.  The result is a fully automated indexing and renaming process for all your electronic documents!

Using existing text, SimpleIndex can index and rename hundreds of files each minute and achieve perfect accuracy.  These files can then be quickly searched with SimpleIndex Retrieval, SharePoint and Google search engines, or uploaded into your company's document/content management system or custom business applications.

MS Office Support

SimpleIndex features full support for viewing and editing MS Office documents (Word, PowerPoint and Excel) on computers with Office installed. The full application interface is displayed within the SimpleIndex viewer, letting users view the full content of the documents, edit them with all the features of MS Office and save the changes. Modify privileges can be denied using Windows file security or by the SimpleIndex administration wizard to keep out unauthorized changes.

Quickly Organize Any File on Your Computer

SimpleIndex lets you process any type of file on your computer. If an OLE-enabled viewer is installed, SimpleIndex will display the document on the screen. Other documents can be opened automatically in their default application when they are indexed. Quickly type index field data that can be used to reorganize the files into subfolders and structured filenames for browsing and searching on your network, or uploaded to your document/content management system or custom business application.

If the file has an accompanying text file (*.TXT) with the same name, the text in that file can be used for index field extraction, fully automating the process.
