SCAN/EDIT WINDOW

Once the scan is performed and processed, the fields on the left side are populated automatically with the user information, extracted from the scanned card. This information can be edited (if needed) before it is saved to the database. To cancel the auto data–extraction, go to the

Settings, and uncheck this option in the desired module

Another image source can be local image files on the hard disk. These files must be scanned in a format of 24 bits (true color) with a resolution of 300 dpi.
