OmniPage has always been the world’s best OCR software. Consistently judged the most accurate by independent experts, OmniPage once again sets the gold standard for document conversion and PDF applications. Over the last two years we have worked diligently to break through current speed and accuracy thresholds plus, delivered several innovative features that make OmniPage Professional 16 the first of its kind on a multitude of fronts. The cumulative results are nothing less than astounding!

• New Best Overall Accuracy
  Everything we do at Nuance begins and ends with accuracy. It’s not just our passion… it’s our obsession. Thanks to two solid years of serious development, we’re pleased to report that we’ve done it again. Our scientists and engineers have worked tirelessly to deliver an amazing 27% increase in overall document conversion accuracy over the previous release. The result is an unprecedented combination of document fidelity and editability guaranteed to make you more productive than ever.
• New The fastest OmniPage and OCR ever
  Now work up to 46% faster than ever before. Improved hyper-threading accounts for 20% of the all new speed increase in OmniPage Professional 16. And with the addition of new parallel processing algorithms, OmniPage Professional 16 becomes the world’s first OCR application specifically designed for a multi-core processor computer. Where lesser OCR will sacrifice speed for accuracy, OmniPage leads the industry on both counts.
• New PaperPort included – Integrated Document Management
  OmniPage Professional 16 comes with the world’s most powerful desktop document management system – PaperPort 11. The integration of PaperPort allows you to set up quick navigation links inside OmniPage that instantly jump to your favorite folders when opening or saving a file to your desktop. PaperPort will open directly to the folder you are saving to so you can see your converted document in context with all your other documents. You can even apply PaperPort Folder Notes to automatically add important keywords and notations to PDF and Word documents for more robust indexing – perfect for searching with all popular search tools including Windows, Yahoo and Google Desktop Search.
• New Amazing 3DC Digital Camera Technology
  When you are on the go and need to capture text from a book, magazine, presentation, or something like an outdoor sign that could never fit through your scanner, you can now use your digital camera. Innovative new 3DC technology automatically adjusts for skew, waves and 3-D perspective. The results are up to 74% more accurate! So go ahead and grab your camera – with OmniPage Professional 16, it’s both easy and accurate to click, capture and convert text without a scanner!
• New Automated data collection from forms
  Not only does OmniPage Professional instantly turn scanned paper forms into editable electronic PDF forms – but it now extracts the data too. OmniPage can batch process all your filled forms, either PDF or printed on paper, and create a .csv data file that can be opened in a spreadsheet or database program. Powerful stuff.
• New Protect or highlight important information
  OmniPage can now recognize and automatically mark up your text on the fly based on a list of key words, numbers or phrases. You can redact (black out) text for confidentiality, quickly locate information with highlights or communicate a revision with strikethrough text.
• New First to support Microsoft Office 2007
  In yet another first, OmniPage Professional 16 is the only OCR application to support Microsoft Office 2007 native formats. Nuance and Microsoft have always enjoyed a close partnership in the areas of OCR and document conversion. With this new release, our friends at Microsoft have recognized OmniPage as a critical business application and helped develop the new Word .docx, Excel .xlsx and PowerPoint .pptx formats in OmniPage.
• New First to support Microsoft XPS
  Also included in this release is robust input and export support for XPS, a new “electronic paper” standard, much like PDF, for document sharing and archiving within Microsoft Windows. OmniPage treats the XPS format much like PDF with the ability to scan to XPS and save as an image, a searchable image or text based XPS. You can even convert PDF to XPS or vice versa.
• New Multiple-Document Support
  Save additional time by working on multiple documents at once. OmniPage can now open, process, correct and save multiple documents simultaneously.
• New Flexible Interface
  OmniPage works the way you like by allowing you to rearrange its various function windows to tailor the workflow to best fit your individual processing needs.
• New Quick Convert View
  Converting documents doesn’t have to be complicated. The Quick Convert View gets the job done in seconds - there’s no need to learn a lot of options and tools.
• New Save Custom Views
  As you work more and more with OmniPage you might want to create different customized views to perform certain tasks. OmniPage not only allows you to rearrange its windows, it lets you save as many layouts as you want so you can easily configure OmniPage to your liking in a snap.
• New Improved Workflow Assistant
  Turn multiple complex tasks into a single button press – in OmniPage or on a scanner button. Customize your document conversion processes with an unlimited number of combinations. No other product easily compresses such power and efficiency into a single step. It’s easier than ever with the newly improved Workflow Assistant.
• New File-It Assistant and Paper Coversheets
  Yes, we actually developed a technology that allows you to use a simple piece of paper to control how OmniPage works. If you’re scanning paper anyway you might as well use it to your advantage. It’s easy to set up and even easier to use. Tell OmniPage where you want your scanned documents to go on your computer or on your network, and in what format you want your documents saved. Then print out a bar-coded coversheet that holds all the proper processing information. Put that coversheet on top of what ever you are scanning and hit the “scan” button on your scanner. OmniPage automatically follows your instructions. What’s best is that anyone can now use that same exact coversheet to control OmniPage document processing. There’s no need for everyone in your organization to learn how to use OmniPage. They just push a button and they’re done! It’s as easy as making a photocopy.
• New Convert Now Wizard
  You’re wandering through folders on Microsoft Windows and you come upon a document you need to convert. Simply right click on the document and let the Convert Now Wizard do the job without even having to open OmniPage. It’s the fast and easy way to get on-demand document conversion in Microsoft Windows.
• New Legal Document Recognition
  OmniPage is now optimized to recognize and convert legal documents that contain special formatting including headers, footers, line number, stamps, signatures and more.
