Xerox Docuwide Qindexer

The most important feature of any document archive is allowing you find the document you want, when you want it, quicky. To achieve this, when a document is entered into an archive, it must be indexed. Popular examples of this include filing documents according to their drawing number.

Whether you start with hard copy or digital documents, creating a useful electronic archive means recording all the details of each document that you may wish to search for later. For more advanced archives you may also wish to capture further information for statistical purposes.

Do you have the time?

For a typical engineering drawing this can mean capturing information from every drawings title block. This may sound simple, but it can be a very time consuming task. Imagine... opening a document, finding the title block, zooming in, remembering the details, closing the document, changing the details, finding the next document... Then imagine repeating this for all the drawings you need to archive.

No room for error

Information captured must be accurate. Consider the consequences of storing a drawing against an incorrect drawing number, the only way to find the document again would be to manually check through every drawing in the archive! The same applies to scanning hard copy originals; the quality of captured documents must be checked to ensure everything is readable. Imagine retrieving a drawing later to find the corner had been turned over during scanning and the dimensions you require have been obscured.

Xerox DocuWide Qindexer has the solution

The Xerox DocuWide Qindexer brings you a unique combination of speed and flexibility with unmatched ease of use. Developed to cope with large volumes of documents, Qindexer allows you to view, quality check and index in one easy step.

The Xerox Docuwide Qindexer provides one simple interface for efficient viewing and indexing of images, directly from the Wide Format Scan System and Freeflow Accxes Controller. Unique scan-to-net technology means a dedicated PC is not required. (System requirements for a PC running Qindexer)

Fast, Interactive Image Preview

Xerox Docuwide Qindexer delivers unparalleled productivity by allowing scanned documents to be viewed prior to indexing. Automatic zooming to the document title block enables swift indexing. Real time navigation of the image with full zoom capability helps you to qualify the quality of the information captured.

For those difficult images a check print is just one mouse click away. If a scan fails the quality check, a reason may be logged for later review.
