Please excuse me for not explaining omr. I've recently joined a company that has a product line of folder inserter systems. Within the folder inserters there are addon components that interfaces the system to create a sorting function within processed papers. Simply put OMR is Optical mark recognition. OMR is a series of six marks within either the top left corner of the page or the bottom row of the page. The marks are configured within different levels of security. The easiest format works with a beginning marker for the first page, and the final marker located on the last page. This concept has more complex page checks. This system is utilized by many different folding and inserting systems. Not to insult your intelligence, but if you're wondering what folder inserters are, it's a mechanical system that folds a number of pages and inserts the pages and an optional return envelope into another envelope, seals and closes the envelope. Large corporations going through thousands of pages need a way of checking the page order. That's where OMR comes in. The insertion of this small barcode is usually done with a program that costs thousands of dollars. I find this as horribly unfair. I also find this as quite a wonderful feature located in an office application. Microsoft does not utilize this feature in their office suite. There are very few ways of accomplishing this feature, and again, that's where the outrageously overpriced software comes in. There are no rights for the feature legally. If you would like the specs on the OMR field, I would be more than happy to send these to you. I'm a strong supporter of Open Office, and I think that this feature could offer a lot of exposure to the OO project. If you're interested in this please email me back. I'll be more than happy to help with the programming of the feature. Thanks for your time.
