What is Papermerge DMS ?
Papermerge DMS or simply Papermerge is a open source document management system designed to work with scanned documents (also called digital archives). It extracts text from your scans using OCR, indexes them, and prepares them for full text search. Papermerge provides look and feel of modern desktop file browsers. It has features like dual panel document browser, drag and drop, tags, hierarchical folders and full text search so that you can efficiently store and organize your documents.
It supports PDF, TIFF, JPEG and PNG document file formats. Papermerge is perfect tool for long term storage of your documents.
Papermerge's main use case is long term storage of digital archives.
This is web-based software. This means there is no executable file (aka no .exe files), and it must be run on a web server and accessed through a web browser.

using very basic setup: there is no OCR worker and no full text search engine
behind. Online instance is reseted every 24 hours (0:00 UTC timezone). Reset
means that all data is restored to initial state and all documents are deleted.
