TEL AVIV, Israel, May 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Top Image Systems, Ltd., (Nasdaq: TISA - news, TISAW - news) and Kodak Document Imaging announced a software integration and marketing partnership that provides customers with seamless data collection solutions. The integration between TiS' AFPSPRO automatic forms processing software and the Kodak Digital Science scanner family will enable organizations to streamline productivity, increase information accuracy and reduce data collection costs.
''The partnership between TiS and Kodak Document Imaging provides a comprehensive solution for our clients,'' commented Izhak Nakar, TiS Chairman and CEO.

One of the most significant examples of the successful partnership between TiS and Kodak is a recent project for Deutsche Post, which currently processes more than one million forms a day with TiS and Kodak technology.
Deutsche Post AG was in need of a timely and precise solution to validate and correct its outdated data. In one week, the AFPSPRO was up and running. The production site encompassed eight Kodak Digital Science Scanner 9500D units, 30 processing stations and 35 completion stations. This project constitutes one of the largest volume forms processing projects carried out to date.
Mr. Thomas Vogt, Managing Director of Deutsche Post, stated, ''We chose TiS' AFPSPRO primarily due to its high level of recognition accuracy and minimal percentage of substitutions rates. Moreover, the AFPSPRO has a uniquely efficient mode for the completion of unrecognized characters. We are pleased to have found a committed partner in TiS, and we believe this project will be a great success.''
Integrating TiS' AFPSPRO software and Kodak Digital Science scanners helps companies to automate manual data collection of information from paper-based forms and applications, ranging from paper and fax to e-documents via the Internet. TiS' award winning AFPSPRO provides a complete, cost-effective solution for mid- to high-volume production forms processing. The software features highest levels of capacity and ease of operation.
