Papermerge Document Management System
In a nutshell, Papermerge is an open source document management system (DMS) primarily designed for archiving and retrieving your digital documents. Instead of having piles of paper documents all over your desk, office or drawers - you can quickly scan them and configure your scanner to directly upload to Papermerge DMS.
Papermerge DMS on its turn will OCR the document and index it. You will be able to quickly find any (scanned!) document using full text search capabilities.
Features
- Documents of pdf, jpg, png, tiff formats are supported
- Per page OCR of the documents
- Full Text Search of the scanned documents
- Files and Folders - users can organize documents in folders
- Multi-User
- User permissions management
- Document permissions management
- REST API (screencast demo)
- Page Management - delete, reorder, cut & paste pages (screencast demo)
