queXF (pronounced kweks-eff) takes scanned paper forms generated using queXML and reads them. Operators can then verify that queXF has read the form correctly. Once this is done, the data collected can be exported in a fixed width ASCII file with a DDI data description. queXF can be used as an alternative to programs such as Cardiff Teleform and Remark OMR, in some situations. It removes the need to manually enter form data, therefore reducing error and fatigue. It does OMR (Optical Mark Recognition) on each form to determine if boxes have been filled, and can use Tesseract OCR to determine what characters have been entered into boxes.

Changes:
The database is now used to manage PDF files to import. Forms are tracked by their SHA1 hash, and a form is only imported more than once if specified by the user. A list of forms that failed to import is also generated. Output to PSPP (SPSS) files is now supported.
