The world has gone digital, wherever you look these days there are a number of technological enhancement that have helped to take the world forward, whether you look at the quality of TV screens as the quality of output continues to increase or whether you look at all the ways technology has managed to assist around the office.
One area where significant improvements have been made recently is in the field of document scanning.
As companies attempt to go green and assist in the battle against climate change, companies are compelled to move from a paper environment to a more digital online format.
For many companies this could mean hours of wasted hours as they attempt to convert their old files on to computer generated formats.
Thankfully there have been a number of advances in the field of document scanning that now allows companies to scan in existing documents in seconds instead of taking the valuable business time to rewrite the whole document in a word processing package.
In a single hour an employee can scan and file more documents than any person could retype in a whole week.
It really has made moving to a digital format a realistic opportunity.
Once the files are scanned and stored safely on the computers server the paper copies can then be placed in to recycling helping to save the planet.
Your average scanning device can process up to 30 pages a minute meaning you can breeze through the archive folders.
Obviously another factor to consider when you decide to head down the document scanning route is the amount of space that scanning all these documents will take up on your server.
Maybe surprisingly the space required for these documents is quite minimal depending on the format that you use.
Obviously don't scan the document in colour as it will take up more space.
Using gray-scale is usually proficient and will help to save space on the server.
Another aspect that is useful to companies when performing document scanning is the ability to be able to edit the letters or articles that you are scanning.
Thankfully with the help of some clever translation software you can now scan and edit documents on a computer meaning that there really is no need for companies to have mass libraries of paper weighing down the shelves of the office and using up the resources of the world.
Why not make 2010 the year when your company goes digital by investing in document scanning?
