Abstract
A system for electronically transaction processing a large volume of documents utilizes high speed local area networks to distribute images and data related to the documents. Connected to the high speed network are slower speed networks in which the processing takes place at workstations. The workstations are programmed with window presentations that sequentially magnify portions of the image of the document where relevant information may be found and corresponding locations on a form generated by the workstation. System operation is controlled by distributed programs.
