Have you ever wondered just how amazing it would be if you were able to use your scanned documents just as if they were regular documents created in a text editor and desktop publishing apps such as Microsoft Word or Apple Pages and such? Today, when you scan documents, you get an image that is final – you cannot make changes to it. The only way to ‘edit’ this is to go back to the document, make changes, and take prints again. How about if we had a way to make changes directly to the scanned documents? Sounds good? This is possible thanks to OCR PDF technology.
Part I: Understanding OCR PDF
One of the first questions on your mind would be, what is ocr pdf? To OCR a PDF means to make that PDF understandable to the system. This is done to allow users to make changes to the contents of the PDF as if it were a text editor app such as Microsoft Word or Apple Pages. Doing this requires a special app with OCR capabilities. OCR is an abbreviation of Optical Character Recognition, the technology that makes your scanned documents readable and editable. If you have never experienced it before, prepare to be amazed. So, which app to use for OCR PDF? A quick internet search may take you to the stables of Adobe, but we all know just how prohibitively expensive their PDF editing solution is.
