What is an automatic document feed scanner?

When a stack of documents, papers or material to be scanned is put into the machine, where the machine automatically feeds it through, allowing the user to scan a sheaf of documents, etc without having to manually feed each and every page, is automatic document feeding.

What are the types of automatic document feed (ADF) scanner?

There are no types for an ADF scanner. ADF scanning is only available in sheetfed scanners and not flatbed scanners. The sheetfed scanners have an input tray where the load of sheets are put in and is gradually fed through the machine automatically. In a flatbed scanner, the scan needs to be done manually.

What is a dual automatic document feed (ADF) scanner or an auto-duplexing ADF?

The ability to scan two sides, that is the front and back sides of any image or document, without removing the document from the output tray and reinserting it through the input tray is called ADF with auto-duplexing. Simply put, both sides of a document will be scanned in a single pass.

Why should one invest in an automatic document feed (ADF) scanner?

If you need to handle or scan a conspicuous amount of paper or physical documents on a frequent basis, then this is the ideal choice for you. One could just insert a large volume of papers in the machine and walk away, the scanning process will complete itself.

What is OCR? How does it work?

A software or a tool, which allows a computing device to identify the text on a physical document and interpret it as data. It is like photocopy, but it allows you to edit or find a text in the scanned document like you would in a word processing unit.
