An administration assistant had a printed copy of a 22 page price list that required updating however the original digital file had been lost. Using Scan to OCR the hard-copy document was scanned and converted into an editable digital format. This whole process took less than 5 minutes, which offered a time saving alternative to retyping all 22 pages.
