    Have a look at the products of Abbyy http://www.abbyy.com/[^] Allows you to create and read the templates and has an API. Been a while since I worked with it, so I don't know how up-to-date they are...

      You need a tool. Preferably a cheap one :)

      Tanks for your kind suggestion, perhaps you would recommend one? Instead of trying to be funny :mad:

        It was very easy to create the templates, just scan a document and add the areas of interest in a designer. Then you use the template to process whatever you need to process. The API to automate was very straightforward. We did have some problems with it in production but that was down to GIGO in combination with the used hardware... It just couldn't deal with lipstick on the documents (and no, you don't want to know :~)

              ABBYY Finereader 9.0 came free with my scanner. It's very good - and the OCR works very well - although handwritten text is a bit hit and miss - but personally I'm amazed it can do it all. I can't say about the API though - I haven't used it. They have trial versions on the website - so I'd recommend trying those first.

                  Have I passed into some strange parallel universe? What the heck is everyone talking about?

                    Leppie said "You need a tool. Preferably a cheap one". What he implied was hire someone cheap to type it for you manually.
