Colortrac is a leading innovator in large format scanners and scanning solutions software since 1989. Its SmartLF Ci 40e (enhanced color) technical document scanner, recently awarded a BERTL 4 ½-Star “Outstanding” rating, is now available with a certified ISIS (Image and Scanner Interface Specification) driver.

Created by Pixel Translations (now EMC Corporation) in 1990, ISIS is a software standard for the acquisition, viewing, format conversion, printing and storage of documents in order to ensure consistent and reliable communication between hardware and software. ISIS is the basis for a public domain standard, ANSI/AIIM MS61-1996 Application Programming Interface (API) for Scanners in Document Imaging Systems, issued also as ISO 14984. Over 300, high speed small format document scanners are available with this industry standard, enterprise-level interface which ensures that scanned information is quickly and reliably integrated into EDM (electronic document management) and EDC (electronic document capture) applications for digital distribution, processing and storage.

Colortrac has pioneered the use of ISIS for its large format scanners since 2003, when the Colortrac 3680e scanner ISIS driver was developed. Over the years Colortrac has supplied many customers with its wide format scanners and ISIS drivers. Users find the familiar ISIS scanning interface and workflow reduces staff training costs, and they can be confident that a certified and tested connection, allows easy expansion of their EDM system to manage scanned wide format documents such as technical drawings and maps.

Colortrac Sales and Marketing Director, Peter de Winter-Brown says, “Recent sales successes and economic conditions have re-focused our marketing efforts in the EDM / EDC market and a key element of our strategy is to strengthen our product offering to these important prospective customers. The SmartLF Ci 40 large format scanner range is ideally suited to EDC / EDM applications with its high speed, colour capability and small footprint.”
