LEADTOOLS ABC Advanced Bitonal Compression

LEADTOOLS ABC (Advanced Bitonal Compression), a proprietary 1 bit compression developed by LEAD Technologies, is a major breakthrough in document compression technology. This set of advanced compression algorithms out performs all industry standard compression types. With LEADTOOLS ABC, customers realize file sizes 4 to 5 times smaller than the files sizes generated by standard 1 bit compression types such as CCITT Group 4.  LEADTOOLS ABC was specifically designed for efficient network transmission of scanned manuals, books, check images and other document types. 

The power behind LEADTOOLS ABC technology is LEAD's new LOSSLESS black and white image compression. LEAD Technologies has been an early leader in turning the latest advancements in image compression into productive, functional implementations for commercial use. In addition, LEADTOOLS supports ABC compressed data stored in a single page or multi-page TIFF.

LEADTOOLS ABC helps companies optimize scanned documents to save transmission / bandwidth usage and server space, which in turn, results in savings of time and money. Many financial institutions such as banks and insurance companies back up their important documents by scanning and archiving the resulting images to servers as TIFF files or other common bitonal file formats. Using LEADTOOLS ABC compression, server space can be significantly reduced, therefore eliminating the need for additional storage. In addition, if the images are being transmitted over the Internet, the smaller file sizes save transmission costs and time since smaller file sizes transfer much faster using less bandwidth.  Refer to the chart below to compare how LEADTOOLS ABC compares to the industry standard 1 bit compression formats.

Why choose LEADTOOLS ABC?

• Superior Compression - Outperforms JBIG2, LZW, TIF and other 1 bit compression format types. Several save/compression options are available to allow you to find your optimal file size.
• Save Time and Money - Reduce the need for purchasing additional bandwidth and or server space by using LEADTOOLS ABC to compress your files five times smaller than TIF G4. You will also save substantial time in transmission of image files over networks and the internet.
• Proprietary Format - LEADTOOLS ABC is a proprietary format created by LEAD's R&D department to produce the smallest real-time lossless compression, with maximum control of the new technology features and capabilities. No more waiting on committees to update standards or guidelines.
