OVERVIEW

IdScan with a Scanshell 800 scanner is a scanning application for various ID
documents such as driver licenses, as well as business cards, barcodes, checks, and
signatures. It extracts both the information data and image of scanned documents into
an external file, clipboard or third party software. In addition, idScan is capable of
exporting the extracted data and image to other applications, email. FTP and the web.
With an outstanding cards scanning and processing speed, combined with a powerful
OCR engine, idScan is ideal for customer service offices, government agencies,
various businesses, and third party kiosk applications.
When using the automatic page-feed detection, idScan launches the scan job
immediately upon the insertion of a document into the ScanShell 800 scanner. The
image is scanned and saved to the hard disk in a predefined color scheme, resolution,
and scanning area, in a user-defined format (BMP, JPG, PCX, PNG, TIFF, TGA,
PSD). The scanned image can also be rotated automatically, using predefined angles
to obtain the proper orientation. idScan offers three naming conventions to the saved
images: fixed name, ascending numerator name, and naming according to the
customer name as extracted from the ID card.
Full automation of the scan process allows chain-feeding of media to the Scanshell
800 scanner while image processing takes place in the background.
The ScanShell 800 scanner is capable of scanning any photo media due to its
powerful scanning engine – including paper photos, ID cards, and even rigid plastic
credit cards.
