The best scanning hardware is wasted if your software can't cut
it. ViewOffice PowerSuite provides six scanning utilities on a
CD-ROM to speed OCR, scan business cards and even send color faxes.
ViewOffice Personal supports 24-bit true color and lets you import,
recognize, file and retrieve scanned documents, e-mail, faxes,
spreadsheets, images and multimedia files. ColorFax can send color
image files over a standard phone line to another system equipped
with the utility. You can send files imported from scanners, VCRs
or Photo CDs.
Business Card Reader scans your business cards into a built-in
database and links to popular contact managers. ImageFolio lets
you edit photographs, drawings and other images captured from
faxes and scanners. Wordlinx performs one-step OCR, and PowerForm
helps you fill out preprinted electronic forms.
