There are five modules in the Prizm Color IP toolkit. Color scanning hardware is available today. With Prizm color IP software, that hardware can be put to work in a production environment. Complete Color Support Color document scanning offers major benefits to the end user including images that more closely represent the original document.
Color images are easier to view and read, and retain image content often lost in bitonal scans.
Because color scanning captures 24 times more information than a comparable black and white image, there is less need to adjust parameters at scan time, even across a wide range of document image types, which can result in increased productivity and fewer rescans. The functionality in the Prizm Color IP toolkit is a direct result of those conversations. The ColorDrop module allows users to drop or extract multiple colors from color and grayscale images using one of two different methods. The software mimics the action of a bitonal scanner, which uses a color bulb to drop red, green or blue from a document image. The software is more flexible than the hardware equivalent, allowing multiple colors to be dropped at a time, and retaining the information from the image to allow forms to be deskewed, registered and identified.
