Data Recognition on Inbound Faxes

I am in search of a solution/process that would
a) allow the scanning of inbound faxed documents ( comparable to a fill-in-the-dot test answer sheet ) as the documents are received via fax, and
b) would then be able to record the scanned information in a database ( or a file that would be database readable ).

It would be highly preferable if the received document was retained for future reference/printing, but I want to bypass being forced to print the document, and then feed the printed document to a scanning device.

Thanks for your help or ideas on the software and hardware required to implement such.
