LuraDocument represents an innovative compression software custom-tailored to the compression of scanned color documents composed of both images and text. The documents are partitioned into pure picture and pure text segments through the use of its state-of-the-art segmentation algorithm. Each of these segments is then compressed using an algorithm optimized for this type of data. As a result, scanned color documents can be stored at extremely high quality despite small file sizes. LuraDocument is capable of reaching compression rates of 1:150 to 1:500 while still preserving full readability of the text and excellent quality of the pictures. This makes LuraDocument far superior to even the wide spread PDF format.
