3 EMC CAPTIVA CAPTURE (FORMALLY KNOWN AS INPUTACCEL) EMC Captiva Capture supports two processing types: zonal recognition and full-text recognition. Zonal recognition is used to capture data from structured forms where field location is the same from one image to the next. Full-text recognition is used to capture all text on the page for full-text search and archiving purposes. CAPTIVA CAPTURE GENERAL-USE OCR EMC Captiva General-Use OCR is the standard engine included with the Captiva Capture Standard and Enterprise Capture Server. With the inclusion of Advanced Zonal OCR/ICR and its superior handprint recognition into EMC Captiva Advanced Recognition, the current Standard Handprint/General-Use ICR engine will be deprecated in the near future. Existing projects that use Standard Handprint/General-Use ICR should be migrated to use the handprint engine included with Advanced Zonal ICR as soon as possible. Processing type Recognition type Licensing Notes Full-text Machine printed Machine Recognizes machine print Zonal 1D barcodes ICR printed delivered as standard. including dot matrix, OCR-A, and OCR-B fonts Uses up to three engines for 1D barcodes optimal accuracy delivered as standard. Provides support for a wide variety of output formats, ICR requires including TIFF, PDF, PDF/A an additional license Can carry out full page form recognition, ICR, OCR, multi- Note: The line and omni-font characters three recognition and barcode processing recognition types can be run at the same time. Over 100 languages are available Engine requires a license Supports 2 recognition types: o o Character recognition Barcode recognition Barcode support EMC Captiva General-Use OCR/ICR engine also provides barcode recognition and supports the following barcode types: Codabar, Codabar with start-stop char transmit, Code 128, Code 128 with check digit transmit, Code 39, Code 39 full ASCII mode, Code 39 with check digit control and transmit, Code 39 with start-stop char transmit, EAN8/13, EAN/UPC with 2 and 5 digit supplement, ITF (2 of 5 interleaved), ITF with check digit control and transmit, Postnet code, UCC Code 128, UPC-A, UPC-E (6-digit)

5 CAPTIVA CAPTURE EAST EURO/APAC OCR EMC Captiva Capture East Euro/APAC OCR module performs optical character recognition of scanned or imported images and exports the image and index data to more than 25 different word processing and text formats. It recognizes several languages with a specialty towards Eastern European and Asia Pacific languages. EMC Captiva Capture East Euro/APAC OCR module is an addon to the Captiva Capture Standard and Enterprise Capture Severs. Note: The East Euro / APAC OCR engine can be used for zonal extraction without Advance Recognition but this is not strongly recommended. In this specific mode, the data retuned from the OCR engine is not UIM data but data that is stored in IA Values. Thus, to pass the data to Captiva Desktop, custom code needs to be written to pass the IA Values to UIM data (in order to present the data in Captiva Desktop). Furthermore, the zonal setup is accomplished via the module itself and not through the Captiva Designer. Therefore, it is strongly and highly recommended to use the East Euro / APAC OCR engine with Advanced Recognition (formerly known as Dispatcher) instead. Processing type Recognition type Licensing Notes Full-text Machine printed Unlimited Uses a single recognition Zonal (not strongly recommended per note above) recognition per client engine. Configure and define different zones for different content types, including text, pictures, tables, barcodes, and check marks.

8 EMC CAPTIVA ADVANCED RECOGNITION (FORMALLY KNOWN AS DISPATCHER) EMC Captiva Advanced Recognition supports two processing types: zonal recognition and full-text recognition. Zonal recognition is used to capture data from structured forms where field location is the same from one image to the next. Full-text recognition is primarily used for semi-structured or unstructured documents where text does not reside in a static location from one image to the next. EMC Captiva Advanced Recognition supports several recognition types, including machine-printed text, hand-printed text, check marks, courtesy amount recognition (CAR), legal amount recognition (LAR), and MICR/CMC7. The following information provides a breakdown on all the recognition options for EMC Captiva Advanced Recognition and indicates which engines are included. CAPTIVA ADVANCED RECOGNITION GENERAL-USE OCR The General-Use OCR is the standard engine included with EMC Captiva Advanced Recognition. With the inclusion of Advanced Zonal OCR/ICR and its superior handprint recognition into EMC Captiva Advanced Recognition, the current Standard Handprint/General-Use ICR engine will be deprecated in the near future.

18 GENERAL GUIDELINES The following information provides more detail on several of the key engines in Captiva Capture and Advanced Recognition. To determine the best engine for a given application, you should always test with your set of documents. Key strengths General use case Captiva Capture General-Use Recognition Good, all-purpose machine-print engine 2-way and 3-way voting Available in many languages Prime Recognition Very accurate with machine-print Voting between engines Dynamic speed/accuracy balance, based on image quality East Euro/APAC OCR Available in many languages, with focus on recognition of Eastern European and Asia Pacific languages General use capture applications for machine print Ideal for applications that require full-text recognition and/or capturing a few index Preferred choice for applications with high accuracy and speed requirements, and high variability of image quality, fonts, etc. between documents Preferred choice for Eastern European and Asia Pacific languages Captiva Advanced Recognition East Euro/APAC OCR Available in many languages, with focus on recognition of Eastern European and Asia Pacific languages Western OCR Good, all-purpose machine-print engine Very accurate on numeric fields General-Use OCR/ICR Good, all-purpose machine-print engine Available in many languages Preferred choice for Eastern European and Asia Pacific languages Preferred choice for free-form data capture applications in Western languages General use capture applications, whether machine or hand print Advanced Zonal OCR/ICR and Advanced Full Page OCR Very accurate with machine-print and handprint Available in multiple processing speeds Preferred choice for applications that require a very high degree of accuracy, and that include both machine- and hand-print recognition requirements

19 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION In addition to the wide array of recognition options in Capture and Advanced Recognition, Captiva also provides a software development kit that allows thirdparty recognition engines to be incorporated into the EMC Captiva Capture product EMC Captiva Capture governs the capture process and allows recognition data to be passed between the various Capture and Advanced Recognition modules Licensing for the add-on engines is per client connection. To determine the number of connections required, first determine the number of computers that will be performing keyword based document classification, data extraction, and rubber band OCR. That will determine the number of client connections you will need for the add-on OCR engines.
