Optical Character Recognition (OCR)

NightOwl’s powerful OCR software converts images into a full-text searchable format. The OCR process enables accelerated retrieval of documents by searches for phrases, names or key words.

OCR is an economical alternative to traditional bibliographic coding for fields not essential to a project, but useful as search criteria nonetheless. Additionally, NightOwl offers OCR clean up for projects in which the results of the standard OCR process need to be enhanced, as in foreign language conversion.
