[Athen] VRS (Virtual Rescan)

[Robert Martinengo]

Hi Scott,

We got a free copy of Kofax VRS with our Kodak scanner, but we never
really got the hang of it. As far as I could tell, it did not do
enough to improve the image to be worth the hassle, but your results
may be better.

What we did do is buy Quickscan Pro as our scanning software, and it
has made a nice difference in how we manage our process.
