What Remark Office OMR is
Remark Office OMR is Windows software for collecting and analyzing answers from plain-paper forms used in surveys, tests, evaluations, and other programs. Forms can be created in a word processor or design tool, then printed on ordinary paper without special marks or writing instruments. The software recognizes optical marks, barcodes, and computer-generated text. Handwriting processing requires a separately obtained Microsoft Computer Vision account. Users can scan forms with a TWAIN-compatible scanner or import TIFF, JPG, and PDF images. Remark Quick Stats produces reports for surveys and tests, while exports support more than 35 formats, including Excel, CSV, SQL Server, and Google Drive. The maker says data remains on the customer’s systems and within its security perimeter. It supports 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 10 and 11, requiring a 2 GHz or faster PC, 2 GB RAM, and 1 GB of free disk space. A license costs 1,295.00 USD once per Windows PC and includes one year of maintenance. A free working trial is available.
