Forefront Technologies, the leading Document Imaging Distribution operation in the Middle East, will unveil the professional scanning solutions at Mobile Show 2012 in Dubai allowing mobile users to access documents from iPads, Tablets, iPhones, SmartPhones and PCs with a browser." Scan to cloud offers the opportunity to add a fairly formidable document management solution without the extended sales cycle and with shortened implementation time.

Scan-to-Mobile and Scan-to-cloud are pieces in the cloud revolution that is beginning in the Document Imaging & Management market as the proliferation of mobile devices grows and changes the business environment.

From PFU Imaging Solutions Europe Ltd., a subsidiary of Fujitsu Ltd, Forefront will present of the ScanSnap series of scanners (S1100, S1300 & S1500) the most compact, mobile and affordable Fujitsu scanning solutions ever. The ScanSnap document scanners transfers printed, drawn, or written information to a SmartPhone, iPad, iPhone, Windows or Mac based computer and also supports direct interface to Google Docs, Evernote, SugarSync and other cloud applications. The Fujitsu ScanSnap series thus enables customers to easily manage documents on their desktop, in popular offsite offerings or both. Users can facilitate access for themselves or others anytime, anyplace via a device platform of their choice - be it PC, Mac, iPhone/iPad, Blackberry, or Windows and Android Smartphones. ScanSnap provides an intuitive mobile document-capture concept by simply inserting the document, press a single button, select the destination and you're done!

"As people increasingly scan all of their important documents - such as tax, insurance, health and other files - into digital formats, there is a greater need to easily save those critical files to the cloud for safe backup and remote access from any device," said Paul Brown the Partner Manager - Middle East of PFU Imaging Solutions Europe Ltd. "Fujitsu's ScanSnap products are making it faster and easier for everyone to create digital versions of everything. When combined with Cloud storage, users have a simple way of creating secure, digital backups of their hard-copy documents."

Image Access is the only scanner manufacturer worldwide offering the full product range of planetary book scanners with automatic book-cradles and V-cradle, large format flatbed scanners for formats up to A2 (25 inches) and wide format sheet feed scanners from 36 inch up to 48 inches in width and the only large format duplex scanner for scanning two sided in a single pass through. All the scanners are exclusively distributed by Forefront Technology in the Middle East.

With the new software Scan2Pad from Image Access, scanning can be controlled with an iPad or Android tablet PC. Color mode and brightness of the document can be selected before the scan and page splitting enabled. The "Export PDF" function converts the images into the popular PDF format. These PDF files are then available directly in iBooks on an iPad. Sending the files via email from your iPad or tablet PC is also possible.

"One of the highlights we are showcasing is a link between gadgets and book scanning technology, targeted to business processes were users are able to scan using the Bookeye4 directly to Windows & Android based Tablets, iPad & iPhone without the need for personal computer, email or network in between" Said Johni R. Jabbor, the Regional Sales Manager at Forefront Technologies.
