⁠Papermerge Document Management System

In a nutshell, Papermerge is an open source document management system (DMS) primarily designed for archiving and retrieving your digital documents. Instead of having piles of paper documents all over your desk, office or drawers - you can quickly scan them and configure your scanner to directly upload to Papermerge DMS.

Papermerge DMS on its turn will OCR⁠ the document and index it. You will be able to quickly find any (scanned!) document using full text search capabilities.

This project is a django application i.e. backend part of the whole papermerge software. If you want to use it's via web browser i.e. with front-end user interface you will need to clone Papermerge Frontend⁠
