Abstract

Electronic documents are traditionally and widely used in many industries without a standard format. This lack of a proper format produces many issues that hinder one from benefiting from those documents. Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) solves this problem by proposing a standard format for each kind of industry. Unfortunately, EDI contains some drawbacks, such as the difficulty of converting old documents to that format. In this paper, a new approach is proposed for automatically converting any document to a specific EDI format without human intervention. It improves upon the EDI technology, especially in facilitating intercompany communication.
