Everyone produces reports electronically, but searching information located in these reports has always been difficult. Thousands of documents reside on file servers or individual computers, with no way to globally search them for information. Certainly, no easy way exists to search for the chemistry contained in these documents. Document Manager solves this problem, and requires no change in how you write and distribute reports.
Web browser based, Document Manager extends the capability of standard search engines to include full free text searching and chemically intelligent structure searching of electronic documents including Text, MS Word, MS Powerpoint, MS Excel, and Adobe PDF.
Features Included
|
Supported Document Formats
|
Document Manager manages a repository of documents. These can be Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, as well as PDF, TXT and HTML.
|
|
Unattended Data Indexing
|
As new documents are added they are automatically indexed and chemical information is extracted. Similarly, if a document is modified, it is re-indexed. No administration of the server is necessary other than routine backup.
|
|
Free Text Searching
|
Documents are searchable by free text, including Boolean expressions, proximity operators, or simple queries. For example "author near Saunders" finds all Word documents where the word "author" appears near the word "Saunders".
|
|
Advanced Chemical Searching
|
Since the chemical information is automatically extracted, documents can be queried by structure, substructure, similarity, molecular weight and formula. Chemical queries also support atom lists, Boolean operations on structures, superatoms, functional groups and many others. Queries can also be refined after an initial search, extending the power of the query language. Chemical information can be both ChemDraw and ISIS/Draw.
|
|
Structured Document Support
|
Structured documents, including documents created with Word templates or XML, are also supported. Information in structured documents is extracted and stored in specific fields of the database for more precise searching.
