Kofax Announces Kofax Desktop 2.0
The new release extends functionality and improves personal scanning operations.
Kofax plc, a provider of document-driven business process automation solutions, announced Kofax Desktop 2.0, a new release of its software for individual users designed to make scanning as easy as printing by embedding such capabilities within Microsoft Office 2007 applications. Release 2.0 increases scanning functionality and ease of use by adding full-text optical character recognition (OCR) capabilities. The software also offers the ability to export color images in compressed PDF files that are smaller than their bi-tonal images, thereby increasing scanning efficiency and speed through a system or network.
The new release also expands Kofax Desktop’s global market reach with the addition of eight new language versions, including French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, Russian, Chinese, and Japanese.
“Kofax Desktop 2.0 enables individual users to scan documents with even greater speed, efficiency, and ease,” says Jim Nicol, executive vice president of products at Kofax. “This new release reinforces our commitment to serve the capture spectrum of desktop to enterprise needs and broadens the software’s appeal with eight new language versions.”
Kofax Desktop 2.0 is now available as a download at www.kofax.com for a free 30-day trail and $49 for a fully functioning version.
