PDF files are everywhere and can come from a variety of sources. They can include scanned pages, embedded images, and other types of information. Yet, many of these elements don’t include searchable text.
The new eDiscovery Assistant for searchable PDF is a revolution in safely converting a single PDF or batches of PDFs of all types into completely searchable documents. Now you don’t have to open PDF files individually, or use an OCR process that may unintentionally wipe out valuable information. Access and convert documents in the cloud Storing, sharing, and archiving documents using cloud storage services is a fast and convenient option today. OmniPage is designed to easily connect to a variety of cloud storage and online document websites. Now you can access and convert documents stored in Windows® Live SkyDrive, GoogleDocs, Evernote, Dropbox, and many other storage options. You can even open documents directly from one cloud service, convert them, and store them in a different cloud service – all in one convenient step. Take advantage of the most accurate OCR solution PC Magazine’s independent tests confirmed that OmniPage is the most accurate OCR solution. Now, it’s easier than ever for re-use content from existing documents. A 27% increase in accuracy translates directly into fewer word errors and less editing.
