OCR Data Accuracy

No OCR software is 100% accurate. The accuracy of conversion depends on the quality of the original. Optical Character Recognition is an automated process performed by computer programs and generally used to convert good quality laser-printed pages. Accuracy on poor quality photocopies, dirty or hand-annotated documents will be lower.

The OCR accuracy depends upon the quality of the original document and printed text quality. If your documents are printed on a fairly good quality printer then we can achieve an accuracy of up to 99.995% from your documents. If your documents have tables, we can also OCR the text from your tables. Pictures, graphics and drawing objects can also be formatted within your OCR document. So at completion your OCR document would appear exactly the same as the original document and now you can edit or search the document by its contents.

OCR correction is very labour intensive and re-keying of poor quality documents provides a high level of accuracy not provided in OCR applications. In some cases, we combine OCR scanning and manual retyping as required to produce an accurate conversion of your document to an editable format.

OCR on spreadsheets tends to produce a high rate of errors in the OCR conversion compared to text documents.

This is to ensure the highest possible level of accuracy has been achieved throughout the OCR scanning and conversion process.
