[RLUG] Document/Content Management

[Dennis Bagley]

I thought you were talking about one thing with the term Document 
Management Systems then it appeared to be something else entirely
when I used the link you provided which took me to Google's software 
page for search engines.

In my office we deal with a lot of documents - most of which our clients 
bring.  To keep our filing down - we opted
for a system that, while not a *nix solution, has been pretty good.  I 
haven't looked but there is
probably a similar one in the OSS world.  We use a product called 
eFileCabinet.  It uses a sheet fed scanner
along with some (proprietary) software to scan and store documents in a 
PDF format indexed with a searchable database.
It's fast, simple to use and while a little pricey has paid for itself 
in two years in our office.

The software also creates a pseudo "printer" so anything  you can send 
to a printer can be put directly into the eFileCabinet
without having to scan and store.

Just my 2p.
