An Imaging system provides the following capabilities:
-
Interface with scanners to capture scanned documents
-
Ability to open authoring tools like Word and Excel
-
Version Control of scanned images
-
OCR / ICR for character recognition from Images
Imaging systems provide capabilities for capturing documents through scanner interfaces and converting images to text using OCR (Optical Character Recognition) and ICR (Intelligent Character Recognition). While some imaging systems may have version control, it's not a universal core capability. Opening authoring tools like Word/Excel is more typical of document management systems rather than imaging systems.
An Imaging (document imaging/ECM) system's core job is to capture paper documents into digital form and extract text from them: it interfaces with scanners to capture scanned images, and it performs OCR (Optical Character Recognition, for machine-printed text) or ICR (Intelligent Character Recognition, for handwriting) to extract searchable/indexable text from those scanned images. Opening authoring tools like Word/Excel is a document-authoring/office-suite capability, not an imaging-system function, and 'Version Control of scanned images' is typically a document/content-management-system feature layered on top, not a defining capability of the imaging component itself. So the two marked-correct options (scanner capture, OCR/ICR) are the accurate imaging-system capabilities.
