FormPro is a software for automated data capturing from filled-out forms, questionnaires and structured documents of all kinds. By using FormPro, data that until recently had to be typed in manually can now be captured automatically and saved into a database.
To enable automatic forms processing with FormPro an empty form must be scanned first and a reading template must be defined. This template determines where on the form you want to capture data and whether this is printed or handwritten text, bar codes or checkmarks.
The main goal of automated data capturing is to store the forms data in a database or text file. Therefore, each reading zone of the form template will be connected to a database field or a text file column, respectively.
As soon as the form template has been defined you can proceed with the processing of the filled-out forms. The pages can be scanned directly or imported from image files. As an alternative, the program can monitor a network folder and import all image files created there. When scanning directly you can, of course, make use of all features of your document scanner like document feeder (ADF), duplex scanning and drop-out colour.
