About Papermerge

Papermerge is a document management system focused on scanned records and searchable text. Import a few scans, check their quality and use folders or tags to set up a small archive. Try retrieving a document by a phrase that appears inside the scan. The OCR result depends on language, image quality and layout, so verify difficult documents before expecting consistent search. A self-hosted archive also needs decisions about backups, account access and updates. Test how original files, metadata and recognized text are stored and exported before moving a collection that has to remain available for several years.
