What is Papermerge DMS?

Papermerge DMS is an open-source document management system built for digital archiving. It supports a variety of file formats, including PDF, JPEG, and TIFF. This platform provides optical character recognition (OCR) to add searchable and selectable text to your scanned documents, this improve efficiency for the users.

The system features version control, which means the originally uploaded version of a document is always retained. Any operation like OCR processing creates a new document version.
