Fax Data Capture with RightFax & Tungsten (Kofax)

Extracting data from faxed documents is often slow, error-prone, and labor-intensive. Scaling manual processes requires additional staff, increasing costs and the risk of mistakes. A better solution is automating the entire workflow with RightFax and Tungsten Capture (formerly Kofax Capture).

Tungsten Capture transforms document images into structured electronic data, whether they originate from fax, email, scanned paper, or other sources. However, many organizations struggle not just with data capture, but with receiving documents in a manageable format. RightFax solves this by eliminating paper-based faxing entirely.

The Role of RightFax in Electronic Data Capture

By digitizing all inbound faxes, RightFax enables fully automated capture. Tungsten Capture works seamlessly with RightFax, ingesting fax images and converting them into actionable data.

  • Eliminate paper handling and manual data entry
  • Route faxes directly to Tungsten Capture, business applications, or user desktops
  • Secure document workflows with industry-standard encryption
  • Improve audit readiness with a complete document history

RightFax also enhances outbound document workflows. Users can send faxes directly from any print-capable application, with options for full automation and scheduled transmission.

RightFax Workflow With Tungsten (Kofax) Import Connector

Even with digital faxing, document quality can vary—some contain machine-printed text, others have handwritten notes, checkboxes, or barcodes. Tungsten Capture extracts and validates all these elements. The Import Connector further streamlines the process, moving fax images from RightFax into final repositories with minimal or no manual intervention.

Your Next Step for Inbound Fax Automation

If you already use—or plan to use—RightFax and Tungsten Capture, the Import Connector can significantly enhance both. Key components include:

  • Message Connector – Converts incoming digital documents for Tungsten Capture
  • KC Plug-In – Feeds converted documents into Capture for processing

However, proper RightFax configuration is crucial. Technical setup is only part of the equation—workflow design and capacity planning are just as important.
