It has always been the dream of most businesses and companies to employ a paperless environment to adhere towards eco-friendly standards. Apparently Nuance Communications offers something along that niche with the launch of the OmniPage Professional 17. This speech and imaging solution is the newest version of the world’s best-selling and most accurate document conversion and scanning application for Microsoft Windows. Nuance has designed OmniPage 17 to help unlock the potential of the green office, delivering innovations that enable an easy and practical transition from paper to paperless – at home, in the office and on-the-go.

OmniPage 17 tackles complexity first by putting scanning and document conversion directly into Microsoft Office, integrating a “Direct OCR” button with Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint. This makes it easier than ever to turn paper and PDF into fully formatted documents, complete with text, columns, tables and graphics, from within today’s popular desktop applications.

OmniPage 17 then cuts the cord from the scanner, letting users capture paper documents, articles and even signs using the built-in cameras on mobile phones, such as the Apple iPhone and other devices. (Mobile phones currently number 3.84 billion worldwide). The enhanced OmniPage 3D-Capture technology automatically corrects for distortions caused by images that are misaligned, with the images then accurately turned into editable text and searchable PDF documents by OmniPage.

OmniPage Professional 17 is available through Nuance’s global network of reseller partners. OmniPage Professional 17 is $499.99 for individual users, with volume discounts available through the Nuance Open License Program. Upgrade pricing and support products are also available.
