I've setup that composite operation to scale the images to the same size, which greatly reduces the effect of mis-alignment (believe it or not). Once they get the upstream systems in place and matured, I'll have them scan a new 1500 template, and things should line up a lot better.

One is the 1500 form, which came from our old scanners (ScanOptics or some such) and the claim data is a test claim scanned on our new ImageTrackII scanners from http://www.ibml.com Those IBML scanners are some sweet hardware. Unfortunately, their software stack on top of them pretty much bites. It has it's good points, but it has a TON of bad ones.

Has all the standard problems of drifting over time due to setup ours has though ;) I’d have sworn that badly overprinted health insurance form (in the Shimaging screenshot) was done by my employers software, till I remembered the attempt to enter the US market crashed and burned…
