Frequently Asked Questions

DocShifter works with Linux, Windows, Docker/Kubernetes; 32GB RAM, 50GB storage, JAva JRE or JDK, and Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio. Please contact us here to talk to us about more specific details for your environment.

From scaling content to fit the defined page size, automatically setting the page size based on the content – and even converting each sheet to a single PDF page – there are multiple options available when handling Excel files in DocShifter.

Absolutely. DocShifter can recognize if a PDF file is signed and process it differently from non-signed content. PDfs can be flattened if required, and original signed PDFs can be attached to converted PDF files to retain any of the original signatures.

DocShifter allows for fully-automated OCR from any file format supported, which includes all image formats listed in a given RFP. The accuracy of results will depend on the quality of the image being processed via OCR, so the required 90% guarantee cannot be achieved without the quality of the content source also being guaranteed.

DocShifter’s software can be deployed on-premise or in your cloud (AWS/Azure/Google). On Microsoft Windows or Linux. Either directly onto hardware, using VMWare or in a Docker / Kubernetes infrastructure.

Absolutely. It's something we have plenty of experience in. Head over to our Document Conversion Services page to find out how DocShifter's team can handle all of your document conversion project needs.
