Overview
For many people, the advantages of moving towards electronic content management are obvious. For other folks, this
is new, uncharted territory. This paper strives to educate the public on what document imaging is, and why it is
beneficial for any business.

Definition:
Document Imaging is the process of converting paper documents, microfilm, microfiche and aperture cards into electronic image files. Once scanned or imported, documents are processed, indexed using one to many parameters and stored in an electronic archive. Images
stored in the knowledge base (electronic archive) can be retrieved, viewed, panned, zoomed, rotated, cropped, resized, annotated and redacted. Software applications that enable imaging functionality are known as document image management (DIM) systems. Purpose: To capture information stored on physical documents and facilitate rapid retrieval. Office space is being crowded with bulky, inefficient filing cabinets and
there are better ways to manage paper. In some cases, this is being mandated by governing agencies. In other cases, it is mandated by the client’s bottom line: Get control of your paper, or lose business!

What can you do? Are your records compliant with regulations? Regulations pertaining to how we use records are coming out of the woodwork. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, Government Paperwork Elimination Act, Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, among others.
