openDIAS is an open source document scanning and storage software designed for home users. It provides professional-level features and capabilities for efficient scanning and storage of important documents.
The openDIAS project is a new open source software that offers a professional-grade document scanning and storage utility to the home user. It enables home document imaging with OCR capabilities, allowing users to scan documents using SANE or import ODF documents and assign tags to them. With openDIAS, users can store all their letters, bills, statements, and other documents in a convenient, safe, and easily retrievable manner.
To use openDIAS, the user must have GTK+ >= 2.10.x, SANE, tesseract, eSpeak, and Sqlite3 installed on their system.
Installation of the software is simple. First, the user is required to `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and then type `./configure' to configure the package for their system. Then, the user can type `make' to compile the package, followed by `make check' to run any self-tests that come with the package. If everything checks out, the user can type `make install' to install the software, data files, and documentation. To remove the program binaries and object files from the source code directory, the user can type `make clean', or for a more thorough cleanup, `make distclean'. There is also a `make maintainer-clean' target, but that is intended mainly for the package's developers.
The latest release of openDIAS includes several improvements, such as threading to 'slick up' the UI, fixing more memory leaks, handling things when the loading image is not available, and using compiler flags to set a data directory.
In summary, openDIAS is a powerful and user-friendly software that enables efficient and safe document management for home users. Its OCR capabilities, tag assignments, and convenient storage make it a must-have for anyone in need of a reliable document scanning and storage utility.
