Omniscan Capturing Software OS12 - Zeutschel

The best solution for the most demanding standards
If you ask librarians or archivists about the value of the cultural assets with which they are entrusted, you nearly always get the same answer: “Unique objects of the highest intrinsic value”. The spectacular sums which are sometimes paid for precious items such as the mediaeval Gospels of Henry the Lion confirm this opinion. The technical requirements specified for the digital and analogue conservation of these documents are set accordingly high.
The new Omniscan OS 12 scanning software meets all these requirements. This software for the first time uses all the advantages of the 64-bit architecture and runs on the XP64 and Vista64 operating systems. Fast and reliable handling of large amounts of data, as it is
required for high resolution scanning of color documents, is standard procedure for OS 12.
A new and unique facility with OS 12 is simultaneous image editing during the scanningprocess. Scanning, editing and file-saving run inparallel threads. The parameters set for image processing (e.g. for 3D book-fold distortion correction) are transferred one-toone to the second image. And this is achieved without any loss of speed when continuing with work on the screen. Unproductive waiting times
are finally a thing of the past. The Perfect Book option makes it possible to scan bound volumes without any distortion. The OS 12 scanning software is thus breaking into new technological dimensions in digitization.

  • Fast processing of large amounts of image data with genuine 64-bit technology
  • Parallel image editing and saving during the scanning process, without any loss of speed due to multithreading
  • Operating interface permanently active, thus no unproductive waiting times
  • Perfect Book (optional) for distortion-free copies even of tightly bound book pages
  • Scanning can be stopped easily at any time
  • Very simple handling thanks to advanced scanning software
  • Parallel capture of metadata for bibliographic description of the scanned image
  • Simple management of scanning jobs
  • Individual setting of scanning area for any number of sections (multi-masking)
  • Visual checking of the work process with integrated thumbnail overview
  • Flexible file-saving in the widest variety of file formats
  • Simple transmission by email and current electronic delivery services
  • File output in accordance with METS standards. Index output as CVS or XML for further processing
