"We chose Dynamsoft DBR SDK because it just worked. There was no tweaking, no fiddling, no preprocessing required."

"It was a breeze to integrate Dynamsoft DBR into our existing solution. Integration was done in a day."

Notarius uses Dynamsoft DBR to provide Legally Valid and Verifiable Documents

About Notarius

Notarius provides solutions to create legally reliable electronic documents using eSignature and trusted digital identities. They also provide simple ways to validate the document's reliability, whether electronic or printed.

The Need

There is a new standard (Otentik) to validate the authenticity of an original electronic document once printed. This is a game changer for the digital transformation of any organization since they can now go digital, but remain legally valid and verifiable once printed. To do this, a digitally signed barcode needs to be put on the document.

Notarius' application is used by large number of users, but very infrequently. Some users (e.g. consumers) may only need to scan codes a few times per year, while others (e.g. business users) may scan a few codes per week or month.

It works by accepting a scanned PDF with a barcode (PDFs are converted to high-resolution images), or an image of a barcode. The application then extracts the barcode data, validates the signature, and shows the digitally signed key data of the document.

The Challenge

At first, Notarius had selected a barcode SDK vendor, which seemed promising based on initial tests. However, customers began to experience issues. Many of the complaints stemmed from the image of the barcode not being clear enough. Notarius then looked at other barcode reader SDKs and found Dynamsoft DBR.

The Solution

Upon further research, Notarius found Dynamsoft DBR and began with a free 30 day trial. The evaluation only lasted one day as Dynamsoft Barcode Reader proved to be a powerful and efficient reader able to decode all ‘less than ideal’ and problematic barcodes.

After the choice had been made, Notarius began to integrate Dynamsoft Barcode Reader into their existing solution. They were delighted by its ease of integration, which was done in one day. Working with the QA team, the Dev team spent a few months testing the app and priming it for commercial release.
