Here’s a bit of knowledge that could save you thousands: Automated OCR is making your DTP stage more expensive.
Many teams assume OCR automation equals cost savings. But here's the thing — automated OCR introduces dozens of formatting errors: misaligned text boxes, broken tables, phantom characters, scrambled fonts. When files arrive with these issues, our DTP specialists spend hours reconstructing pages instead of doing actual layout work. What should take two hours takes six, and your costs triple.
When InText handles OCR in-house, files arrive at the DTP stage already clean. Instead of spending hours fixing formatting chaos, DTP specialists focus on actual layout work, cutting the timeline and costs dramatically.
In short:
Automated OCR = higher DTP costs
InText OCR = fewer DTP hours and smaller invoices
Sometimes, the best shortcut is knowing which shortcuts to avoid.
