ABBYY FineReader Use Case For Students

Conversion of paper documents into accessible information

Students usually receive a lot of handouts. These handouts include pre-readings, slides, case studies and many other materials which are printed on paper. Although these materials contain a lot of valuable information, they are usually thrown away after several years of useless storage because:
- Paper materials occupy too much space
- Difficult and expensive to transport bulky and heavy folders
- Almost impossible to arrange instant access
- Search requires a lot of time

In this screen cast it is shown how to get rid of useless paper, arrange almost instant search of any information inside scanned and converted into searchable PDFs documents. It is also explained how to make these documents accessible from any computer connected to the internet, so there will be no need to carry bulky and heavy folders with papers if one wants to work outside of the storage place.
