  • Patent number: 8929686
    Abstract: A method and system for automating quality assurance for one or more documents, including a repository configured for electronically storing a plurality of forms; a computing subsystem for: accessing at least one of the plurality of forms, and selectively encoding the at least one of the plurality of forms with at least one electronic mark to obtain at least one encoded document with the at least one electronic mark; a document processing subsystem for: both scanning a print corresponding with the at least one encoded document and detecting the at least one electronic mark, and for: (a) generating a first bitmap from the at least one encoded document, (b) using the at least one electronic mark to generate a second bitmap from a form related document retrieved from the form repository, and (c) comparing the first and second bitmaps to determine if the first and second bitmaps substantially match.

  • Publication number: 20120265759
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for processing electronic documents having different native file formats is provided. The method is implemented in a computer system comprising one or more processors configured to execute one or more computer program modules. The method includes (a) receiving electronic documents in different native file formats; (b) identifying the native file format for each received electronic document; (c) retrieving a stored configuration data for the identified native file format, the configuration data includes a mapping of regions of interest in the electronic document with the identified native file format and their associations with output fields; and (d) processing the electronic documents using their retrieved configuration data to extract data from the electronic documents.
