Importance Of Using Teleform Systems


by Kathy Kaufman


Teleform is a product of technology which aims large companies that have information to capture, validate and store to actually do juts that. Images as well as mathematical data could easily be read using such a system. Most important is that thy could recognise and interpret different symbols used in data from all countries.

The history of teleform traces to 1991 where this device was invented by a company called Hewlett Packard. The aim of this first device made was to help with the reading of information received via fax, via paper and also other electrical means. It is known that man has a tendency of finding a different means of solving their problem f the initial proves to be cumbersome. For this reason this technology was established and has since helped so much.

The question is, how this system works. The answer is that it works with the help of other technologies. The image scanner, currently known as the Optical Mark Reading (OMR) is one of the helpers device. It digitalises the data fed to it in paper form. It gives a chance for more information to be entered per sheet and is thus a very reliable form of technology.

This Optical Mark Recognition technology works in line with other forms of optical technology too in order to make work easier. Optical Character Recognition, Intelligent Character Recognition and Bar Recognition are the three other helpers. The first and second read information in letters presented to them and the last one reads bar codes.

This technology has very many different functions. One of the functions is the scanning of images. Another one is that it allows its users to review data that had been collected so that in case of any corrections, the mistakes will be emitted. Teleform also has that capability to create forms that could easily be read by a machine. Its main function is also to read data from the forms submitted to it then store the information in the correct database.

It has advantages attached to it. The customer supplier relationship is enhanced. The reason for this is the efficiency of the system in the reading of information thus no delays. Manual sorting of data can incur very high costs on an individual and thus teleform solves this through its cheap performance. The risks involved with storage, such as damage of documents as well as the business is reduced due to safe storage offered by teleform. Staff productivity is also increased due to more concentration on professionalism and less on time wastage.

The disadvantages include loss of jobs for very many people. It is electronic and thus when a company decides to initiate it, the workers that were employed before to do the sorting manually immediately lose their jobs. Technology also has a wicked side in as much as it is also great in easement of work. This wicked side is the one that mainly makes people to curse it.

Everything about teleform, from its history to its functioning then the advantages and disadvantages have been explained. It is therefore upon individuals and organisations to decide whether teleform is the change they need in order to improve their services. It would be a manual to digital transformation.
