beolvasásra

Beolvasásra is a Hungarian term used mainly in information technology and office workflows to denote the act or purpose of inputting data by scanning into a digital system. The word is formed from the prefix be-, the noun olvasás (reading) and the suffix -ra, which marks direction or purpose, yielding a meaning akin to "for scanning/reading into".

Etymology and scope: The root olvasás refers to the act of reading, while be- indicates movement into or onto a system. The suffix -ra turns the term into a designation of intention or destination. In practice, beolvasásra is used to specify that documents or data should be scanned and brought into a digital workflow or repository.

Usage and contexts: In office and data processing settings, beolvasásra describes items that are intended to be scanned. It can refer to the action of converting physical documents into digital images or to the stage within a process where items are prepared for scanning. Common phrases include beolvasásra szánt anyagok (materials intended for scanning) and beolvasásra előkészített dokumentumok (documents prepared for scanning). After beolvasás, additional steps such as Optical Character Recognition (OCR) may be applied to extract text from the scanned images.

Relation to related terms: Beolvasás refers to the scanning action itself, while beolvasó denotes the scanner device. OCR is frequently used after beolvasásra to convert scanned images into editable text. In documentation and workflow descriptions, beolvasásra helps clarify the intended data capture step.
