Before computers were widespread, office documents were handwritten and placed in folders or binders to be filed. Each company normally would have a document management office to be responsible for these documents. However, as documents accumulated, it became difficult time-consuming to locate certain past records manually. Today, office workers can use computers to type up documents and store them as electronic files. To retrieve documents, keyword search can be applied to find them quickly. It is convenient and paperless office environments can be established.
