DocMorph
Launched in May 1999, DocMorph is a publicly available Web site that allows users to convert more than 50 types of electronic files into 5 possible outputs:

  • Portable Document Format (PDF)
  • Multi-page Tagged Image File Format (TIFF)
  • Single-page TIFF
  • Text
  • Machine-translated text

The DocMorph Web site is not only a useful consumer tool, but it also provides the National Library of Medicine (NLM) a research mechanism to evaluate the effectiveness and utility of various document image processing techniques and algorithms.
