Kofax Releases Kofax Capture V9.0
The latest update to the worlds finest scanning
solution.. |
 |
IRVINE, Calif., January 26, 2010 – Kofax plc (LSE: KFX), the leading
provider of document driven business process automation solutions, today
announced a new release of Kofax Capture. Version 9.0 incorporates new features
that deliver more efficient deployment and administration capabilities to
support enterprise wide installations and other benefits.
Version 9.0 allows users to automate the deployment and updating of the
software, their applications and any customisations from a central server.
Remote sites automatically receive these and updates as they become available.
The new release also ensures high availability at remote sites through redundant
licensing, which improves system reliability and ensures business continuity.
Kofax Capture 9.0 also includes the capability to update, modify and revise
specific aspects of a document batch class while processing is already in
progress. This reduces the potential for exceptions that might later require
time consuming and costly manual steps to correct. Additionally, specific
document types within a document batch can now be routed to specific operators
for specialized handling, thus accelerating processing times while lowering
operator training costs.
Updated to support Microsoft Windows 7.0, the new release also includes a
Microsoft Windows Installer (MSI) that enables enterprise customers to
seamlessly deploy Kofax Capture using their standard software management and
delivery tools

Support for Tivoli Storage Manager
Devices
Support for Tivoli Storage Manager Devices The VIP DocManager iSeries
server now supports archiving documents and DocLink indexes to any
storage device accessed through the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager.
|
DocLink Security on the iSeries Server
The VIP DocManager iSeries server now includes the ability to implement
page level security based on the values of one or more of a report’s
DocLink indexes. You can implement this new security for any or all
report types. If DocLink security is on for a report, when a user
performs a DocLink or OmniLink search of a report type, matches are
listed in the hit list only if they meet the DocLink security conditions
for that user..
|
Increased Maximum Capture File Size
You can now capture files up to 4 GB in size into VIP DocManager. In
previous versions, the limit was 2 GB. On Windows and Unix VIP
DocManager servers, the new limit applies to both report files and image
files. On iSeries servers, it applies only to reports.
|
Drop-down Lists in DocLink Search Fields
All versions of the VIP DocManager Server (Windows, iSeries, and UNIX)
now allow administrators to define a list of possible entry values for
any DocLink index search. For example, for a department index, you could
define a list of existing departments; the user would then select the
department to search for instead of having to type it. You can define
any list so users must select from it, or so they can either make a
selection or type an entry not on the list.
|
E-mail Shortcut to a Document in VIP
DocView
In addition to attaching an actual report or image file to a message
generated in VIP DocView, you can now send a link to the desired report
or image. The link is contained in a small attached XML file. When the
recipient opens the attachment, the link is activated, the user is asked
to log on to VIP DocView, and VIP DocView opens the target document.

Need to Scan Documents to Microsoft® Sharepoint® ?
Kofax Express makes it easy for anyone to scan, organize and store documents, at
speeds that make short work of batches big and small. Easy enough for beginners,
powerful enough for pros; let Kofax show you the new Express route to scanning.
Bring order to your document images, and ensure they always land in the right
place. The Kofax Express innovative Smoothview Technology puts you in control,
allowing you to manipulate multiple document images with ease. Find, replace,
gather, zoom, divide, rotate, swap, order and place document images in ways you
never could imagine with a stack of paper. And, thanks to the embedded VRS (VirtualReScan),
you'll exercise control using document images that look better than their paper
originals.
A captured document image isn't much use unless it can be saved in an accessible
format and retrieved easily. That’s why in addition to single page
(JPEG/TIFF/PDF) and multi-page (TIFF/PDF) format options, Kofax Express also
includes release scripts that smoothly transfer saved documents to Microsoft
SharePoint or other applications. Advanced users can craft release scripts of
their own by utilizing the Kofax Express release application programming
interface (API).
