What is OCR and Why is it Useful?
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is a technology that converts images of typed, handwritten or printed text into machine-readable text. When you scan a paper document, the result is a "flat" PDF, which is essentially an image. You cannot select, copy or search the text in such a file.
Our tool applies OCR to your PDF. It analyzes the pages, recognizes the characters and adds an invisible text layer behind the image. The result is a smart, searchable PDF.
- Search Fast: Search your documents directly by keywords.
- Copy & Paste: Select and copy text fragments for reuse.
- Accessibility: Make documents usable by screen readers.
- Indexable: Make your archive indexable for search systems.
