Re: [PDF] Searchable pdf

[Steven M. Harris]

Acrobat 6.0 (Standard) or Acrobat 6.0 (Professional) will do that.  Paper Capture (OCR) is built into both.  You can create the PDF directly from the scanner into PDF using the "create PDF function"  or convert the tiff scan to PDF using Acrobat - and then OCR using Acrobat 6.0  which will create searchable text within the PDF file.  The Image Exact option for OCR in Acrobat is particularly  nice, since it adds searchable text to the PDF file but does not alter the integrity of the scanned image so that a paper print of the PDF  scanned image is true to the original scanned image.   Steve Harris ----- Original Message ----- From: Todd Kelly To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 25, 2003 4:40 PM Subject: [PDF] Searchable pdf I�m looking for a reliable, accurate and inexpensive software that will convert scanned images to searchable pdf files.   Todd
