1. Foxit/LuraTech PDF Scanner App

The Foxit/LuraTech PDF Scanner App turns your smartphone or tablet
into a mobile scanner for all types of documents.

You can now simply take snapshots of any single-page or multi-page
paper document and turn them directly into high-quality PDF files.

The app sticks to the promise behind the entire Foxit/LuraTech Mobile PDF
product family: controlled, maximum-quality scans just like the source material.

Foxit/LuraTech Mobile PDF Scanner App ensures excellent
single- or multi-page scans, stored as highly compressed PDF files or
JPEG image sequences in the app’s document list.
Scanned documents can be immediately and quickly uploaded to predefined
cloud storage services or forwarded by email for further processing.

Foxit/LuraTech Mobile PDF Scanner App brings Foxit's/LuraTech’s
award-winning MRC compression technology to your smartphone.
This layer-based mixed raster content technology (MRC)
can compress scanned documents to a ratio of 1:100 or better.
Outstanding image quality and text legibility are preserved, while
storage costs and bandwidth requirements are drastically reduced.

Main features:

• Scan your documents by using the integrated camera.


• Page distortion is automatically corrected.


• Create highly compressed PDF documents.

Additional features:

• Manage JPEG and PDF documents using a file list.


• Camera focus is controlled by the App and pictures can
  be taken manually or automatically when focused.


• Automatically crop and scale images by recognizing page borders,
  plus manual cropping and scaling with magnifier function.


• Pages can be rotated and re-ordered before converting them to a PDF file.
  Cropping, brightness and contrast can also be adjusted manually.


• Constant quality control during capture:
  detects disruptive reflections, excessive distance from document,
  or poor lighting conditions, and uses overlays on the camera image
  to direct the reader to the best possible result.


• Brightness, contrast and color balance are adjusted
  automatically for optimal readability.


• Foxit/LuraTech Mobile PDF Scanner App stores all images taken
  as PDF files and optionally also as series of JPEG images
  in its own document list.


• Creates highly-compressed PDF files fully compliant with
  PDF/A-2u (ISO 19005-2), the file format recommended for
  long-term archiving.


• Existing documents within the list can be updated at a later date:
  add pages, align, delete and edit.


• Upload to cloud storage service and send by email from within the app.

The PDF Scanner App is based on the Foxit/LuraTech App Framework SDK.
The App Framework SDK includes a copy of the app’s source code.
It really doesn’t get any easier.

Available for download from iOS and Android App Stores for free

The Foxit/LuraTech PDF Scanner App is available for download as a universal app for free for

• iOS devices (Apple iPad and iPhone) in the Apple App Store, and for


• Android devices in the Google Play Store.

2. Foxit/LuraTech Mobile Compression SDK

The toolkit for app developers aiming to integrate Foxit's/LuraTech’s
award-winning MRC compression technology into their own apps.

Easily integrated into workflows, the Foxit/LuraTech product family uses
the award-winning Mixed Raster Content (MRC) compression technology
to convert colour, greyscale or black/white scanned documents into
high-quality, highly-compressed PDF and PDF/A files.

Mobile Compression SDK integrates easily into a range of environments
including C++, iOS Objective-C and Android Java.

A scanned full-color, single-page A4 PDF created with
the Mobile Compression SDK will take up 40kB of storage space or less.
A similar quality JPEG would easily take up ten times the space or more.

Key Features:

• Award-winning PDF MRC compression, including JBIG2, JPEG2000 and more


• Interfaces for integration with OCR output (e.g. ABBYY XML formats)


• Supports PDF/A-­2u and other PDF Standards and versions


• Create, load, open and save PDF files


• Copy, move, rotate and turn PDF files


• Multi-threading implementation for ideal performance and user experience


• Simpler interfaces than the standard LuraTech PDF SDK,
  for shorter development times

Easy implementation

Thanks to a simplified interface in comparison with the standard Foxit/LuraTech PDF SDK,
as well as clear, comprehensible documentation, development times are kept
as short as possible.

High Performance

The Foxit/LuraTech Mobile Compression SDK offers industry-leading
document compression based on international standards.
Produces guaranteed regulations-compliant PDF or PDF/A files.

Samples:

• Foxit/LuraTech PDF/A Compared with Conventional Formats:

  Scanned page: 300 DPI, full-color RGB, A4 size.

  




• Foxit/LuraTech PDF/A Compressed Document:

  • Compressed document
  
  

  Uncompressed document, size: 406 MB, format: TIFF, 300dpi.
  Compressed document, size: 944 KB, format: PDF/A-2u.

  Open the sample document in Adobe Reader to view compressed file,
  press INFO button to see the format,
  press LAYER button to switch between 3 layers enabling the high-compression.

Business Processes Begin on the Smartphone with Smart Scanning Apps

So many business processes begin with a sheet of paper.
Maybe it’s an application form in the B2C field, maybe it’s a B2B contract.
Maybe it’s for internal use, like an expense sheet for an employee’s
latest off-site trip. The possibilities go on and on.

Now smart scanning apps can easily be integrated into a
business’ own systems using web service architectures meaning
that not only would processes complete automatically,
but the smartphone user would also receive responses to
their submissions, including approval messages and signatures.

Start offering on the move customer services at reduced costs
with smart scanning apps technology from Foxit/LuraTech.

Develop interactive smart scanning apps for businesses quickly and
without any prior understanding of document and image processing
or how to add functions like document submission to existing apps
with a minimum of time investment.
