I use my digital camera to take pictures of documents that I want to reference later. OmniPage Pro 18 does a wonderful job of re-creating the documents from the image files. Once again, OmniPage Professional 18 is a just the right tool for the job.

ADVANTAGE

WHY???

They treat all PDF files like they were scanned documents and they destroy information

OmniPage 18 treats PDF files the right way

16

Solving the problem of searchable PDF after scanning

Creating Searchable PDFs

• Scanned PDF documents do not contain text and are not searchable

• An OCR process can be applied to turn a scanned (image) PDF into a

Searchable PDF that contains text behind the image

So what’s the problem?

• Your customers, clients or co-workers may not use Searchable PDF

• After a document is scanned or captured additional text elements can be

added to a PDF including:

– Annotations, Keywords, Bookmarks, Watermarks, Digital Signatures and more

This is where the trouble starts

• When you use OCR to create a Searchable PDF using any popular OCR

program bad things happen to new text elements

– Annotations, keywords and other elements are completely lost

– Other elements like watermarks or layers are permanently flattened into the

document and can destroy underlying text

17

The solution to truly Searchable PDF is OmniPage 18

eDiscovery Assistant for searchable PDF

• An intelligent way to create optimal Searchable PDF files without damaging or

removing existing text or data

Why is it called eDiscovery? (also called electronic discovery)

• Refers to any process in which electronic data is sought, located, secured, and

searched

• This process is applicable to a large number of document intensive vertical

industries

– eDiscovery is a $2 billion dollar industry within the Legal vertical

– Financial, Insurance, Healthcare, Education, Manufacturing, Technology all

need to search PDF files

eDiscovery- Safely making PDF files searchable

The eDiscovery is a godsend! I have a lot of PDFs of books that I have scanned over the years and to have the ability to perform eDiscovery on books that have existing annotations is wonderful.

David Cote Virginia Beach, VA

Using the eDiscovery Assistant I converted 4 different files and was able to search each with no problem. This is a feature that I have needed for some while.
