What is OCR and how does it work?
OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology analyzes scanned documents or images to detect and extract text, converting it into machine-readable and searchable content.
What types of PDFs work best with this tool?
Scanned PDFs with clear, typed text at 300 DPI or higher resolution provide the best results. Low-quality scans or handwritten text may have lower accuracy.
How accurate is the OCR conversion?
Accuracy depends on scan quality, but typically exceeds 99% for clean documents. The tool includes error correction algorithms to improve results.
Can I convert multiple pages at once?
Yes, the tool processes all pages in your PDF document, making the entire document searchable regardless of page count.
Will the original formatting be preserved?
Yes, the tool preserves the original layout, images, and formatting while adding a searchable text layer to your PDF.
Are my files secure during processing?
Absolutely. Your files are processed securely and are automatically deleted from our servers shortly after conversion.
Is there a file size limit for conversion?
We recommend files under 50MB for optimal performance, though larger files may also work depending on complexity.
