PDF OCR scanning software, make pdf searchable with OCR software

PDF files are image perfect representations of the original document, and as such ideal for both archiving and file sharing. In the last few years, PDF files have become the de-facto imaging file standard. One thing with PDFs is that they are less searchable than other word processing formats. This is where OCR meets PDF software. For example, Nuance’s OmniPage 17 OCR software allows for the creation of searchable PDF files from any paper or electronic document, and from there on you can convert it to any other format. That enables enable easy document editing, archiving and sharing to save valuable time and money.

OmniPage 17 is the first product to combine image OCR and text capture for superior results on all types of PDF files. PDF files (even image-only files) can be converted into many different formats with up to 100% accuracy. The ability to work with PDF files in an editable format saves countless hours of file re-creation.

Paper can be quickly converted into any number of searchable PDF formats helping you create space-efficient and easily retrievable digital archives. Because OmniPage’s OCR is the most accurate the document retrieval process will be as well - a search can only be as accurate as the OCR that indexed the document.
