Summary
ScanFix Xpress by Pegasus Imaging Corporation
Bitonal image enhancement toolkit. ScanFix Xpress is delivered as a .NET and ActiveX/COM software development toolkit, offering bitonal document image enhancement technology. Create smaller file sizes and cleaner images, ultimately resulting in higher OCR rates. Clean up images using deskew, noise removal, dot shading removal, hole punch removal, line removal, text repair, auto inverse text correction, auto negate, auto binarization, auto border crop, blank page detection, image registration, and rotate. ScanFix Xpress includes ImagXpress Professional.
Features
Programming environments: Win32 visual development environments
Sample code is included for: VB.NET, Visual C#, Delphi .NET, VB, VC++
Deploys within .NET as a managed control
Can be used in any development environment that hosts ActiveX/COM controls
Confidence values are available for many operations
User configurable debug settings to control level of detail
Image Input, Image Output, and Image Handling
Provided through the included ImagXpress Professional .NET component and ActiveX/COM control
Features include image viewing, compression, conversion, TWAIN scanning, annotation, printing, image processing, and more
Deskew
Automatically straighten crooked images and report correction angle
Deskew images in a fraction of a second
Uses content of the images, not just the document
User configurable High Quality vs. High Speed setting
High Quality sets a higher number of places to check around the image, ultimately providing the highest level of deskew accuracy, but the image processing speed is slower
High Speed sets a lower number of places to check around the image, ultimately providing the fastest image processing speed, but offers a slightly lower level of accuracy
Noise Removal
Remove random specks or noise from images
Configurable user specification of speck size, or use automatic settings
Special Isolated Despeckle algorithm prevents removal of desired dots such as punctuation
Dot Shading Removal
Automatically remove dot shading surrounding text for improved OCR accuracy
Remove scanner noise caused by colored backgrounds (gray, blue, etc.)
Reduce files sizes caused by additional pixels, without destroying text
Hole Punch & Blob Removal
Remove hole punches and larger areas of black
User configurable threshold settings
Specify full page or a specific area of interest
Reduce file sizes and storage requirements with cleaner pages
Return count of objects found
Line Removal
Automatically remove solid or broken lines (both horizontal and vertical) from scanned forms and documents
Automatically repair text that intersects with lines (fill broken characters), essential for forms processing
Comb Removal (commonly used in ICR forms)
Automatically remove data entry combs from forms
Automatically repair text that intersects with lines (fill broken characters), essential for forms processing
Character Completion & Smoothing
Repair, smooth and thicken incomplete characters
Repair broken or incomplete characters to create complete characters
Especially good on poor dot matrix text
Smoothes ragged edges on letters
Thickens or thins letters as needed
Auto Inverse Text Correction
Detect and automatically convert inverted text zones
Change white-on-black text to normal black-on-white
Recognize inverse zones in any shape, including circular
Remove the fill color of text
Reduce file sizes by eliminating unnecessary black pixels
Auto Negate
Automated reporting of black on white (normal) or white on black (negative) images
Automated correction (user configurable to simply report or to automatically correct)
Creates black on white images, which are often required for many other ScanFix image processing actions
Auto Binarize
Automatically convert grayscale and color images to black and white, and clean up noisy images
Optimize binarization results using the user configurable options
Auto Border Crop
Automatically convert black borders to white
Reduce image file size (both physical dimensions and compressed file size)
Automated border crop (user configurable to simply report or to automatically correct)
Use on microfilm or small document images that have been overscanned
Blank Page / Blank Rectangle Detection
Identify and report blank pages, or blank areas of interest
Configure settings to accommodate bleed-through or noisy images (i.e. ignore hole punches)
Reduce file sizes and storage requirements by eliminating blank pages
Sub-Image Processing
Separate out an area from the original document image prior to image processing
Speeds up processing and outputs only the smaller area of interest
Reporting of Process Results
Reports the location of lines, shaded regions and inverse text regions for forms recognition
Useful in forms processing solutions for form identification and registration
