Please explain what you mean by document imaging, do you mean just storing an image of a document online (like a fax or a photograph) or do you mean application documents (like word, excel). Index server can read through word (or otherMS) documents if it is large scale and create a dynamic searh engine. If it is a smaller project may I suggest that the image is treat just as a binary file, with descriptive elements held in a database record which points to the file (you could also store the file on the DB). Ive not heard of Character reading software that could "read" an uploaded document and populate a database though.
You will definitely need some sort of file upload component (I use saFileUp) which can process the image and place it in a folder or DB. http://www.aspobjects.com/ASP_Components/File_Management/Upload_Download/ Web pages will always work on Windows, until Bill Gates decides otherwise of course...
