Doc Management and retrieval

by nickarie Aug 12, 2009 2:45AM PDT

I have to scan lots of documents (10000+). I?m looking for indexing and search for retrieval of the document idea. Basically these documents are client charts. Scanned to PDF format. Each chart might contain 10-60 pages. I need to have few fields like name, birthday, ID, few more associated to chart. I also need some kind of database for search and retrieval based on the fields. (no ms or goole search) Any help would be appreciated. I don?t have big budget
and most of it is going to be spend on fast scanner. Any suggestion on scanner is helpful too.

A student of mine made something like this ...

to scan invoices, using MOSS (Microsoft Office Sharepoint Services) for the storage and indexing and scanning software from Knowledgelake integrated into it. It was a multi-month, many-many dollar project and they already had their MOSS license.
