Basic facts you must know about OMR softwareThe OMR software is a designed for the purpose of scanning and processing

a large number of data from tests, surveys, assessments, and other types of

forms and documents. This software is installed in the Optical Mark

Recognition scanner or simply the OMR scanner that scans the form or

document in order to initiate the data collection procedure. The final OMR

software reports are basically the results obtained after the completion of

the scanning process. This software has the potential to process large

volumes of raw data and convert them into meaningful results.

One of the biggest uses of this software is the scanning of test answer

sheet. OMR answer sheet checker software is programmed in such fashion

that it can scan and check a large number of OMR sheets without

consuming a great amount of time. It greatly reduces the amount of labor

and time that would otherwise be spent in the checking of such answer

sheets. Because of the effectiveness and simplicity of the procedure, a

majority of universities and educational institutions are now using this

facility while conducting various types of tests and examinations. Most OMR

software are capable of delivering outputs in various formats like PDF,

Access, XML, CSV, DBF, etc.

Nevertheless, different educational organizations have different rules and

needs and therefore the program is made flexible enough such that changes

can be made as per various types of requirements. The software also comes

preloaded with a wide range of output and report formats especially the

ones that are generally used by colleges and universities. The OMR

software is quite flexible and it can work with the traditional OMR scanners

easily.

The scanner supported by the software can process a large amount of data

and produce results in a precise and accurate fashion. It can detect even

the minor anomalies in the answer sheet and thus produce clear-cut results.

Once the answer sheets are scanned and the OMR software reports are

formed, the software can automatically save the reports. The reports can

then be used for various purposes and can even be shared virtually via

email or can be printed out as hardcopies.
