PaperStream Capture Pro is a robust document capture solution developed by PFU, a Ricoh company. It is designed to streamline high-volume scanning workflows and offers advanced automation, optical character recognition (OCR), and data extraction capabilities. As of May 2025, recent updates have expanded compatibility to support scanners from all manufacturers, allowing both PaperStream Capture Pro and Capture Pro Premium to work with any TWAIN-compliant device.
This enhanced version of one of the world’s most widely used capture applications incorporates state-of-the-art technology. It now offers high-speed form recognition and is optimised for broad scanner compatibility, regardless of brand.
The solution features an intuitive user interface designed for ease of use. With tools like Batch Manager and wizard-based profile management, users can initiate scanning tasks with a single touch. This user-friendly approach makes the system accessible for organisations with varying levels of technical expertise.
PaperStream Capture Pro is tailored for A4 desktop scanning needs. For organisations requiring A3 support, higher volume scanning, and file import capabilities, PaperStream Capture Pro Premium extends the same benefits to more demanding environments.
The software integrates seamlessly with major document management systems through a wide array of pre-built connectors. For custom integrations, it offers an open API and access to PFU’s Co-Creation team. The Imaging Alliance Programme further supports development efforts by providing tools, sample code, and expert technical guidance.
AI-optimised intelligent form recognition accurately interprets handwritten non-cursive text and tick boxes. It delivers high-accuracy OCR in five European languages. Data is extracted and provided in digital format, eliminating the need for additional software. On-screen After Scan tools and an Advanced Image Quality Checker ensure that documents are captured correctly the first time, increasing operational efficiency.
The application runs locally on user PCs, making deployment straightforward. It is automatically updated with new features and enhancements, ensuring organisations benefit from the latest innovations with minimal effort.
