How to do Ctrl+F and search in a scanned document?

If you want to do Ctrl+F and search in a scanned PDF, the first thing you have to do is the OCR software download and convert the scan into a searchable PDF. Converting a scanned document into recognizable text is called "Optical Character Recognition," or OCR. OCRvision is a searchable PDF automation software.

This text searchable PDF has an invisible layer of text which can be searched using the Ctrl+F button in your PDF reader. There are lots of online tools and desktop OCR software available which can help you to convert the scanned document into a searchable one.

But if you have lots of scanned documents sitting in your local computer, making all of them searchable one by one can be a time-consuming process. 

OCR vision searchable PDF software can help you to automate this process. With the help of OCRvision, you can configure any folder in your computer as a "watched folder". We call it magic folder. OCRvision monitors these magic folders and converts ant new scanned documents into searchable PDFs. 

It has multi-language support. ie if you have a document which contains both Engish and Chinese, OCRvision can detect both texts and make the searchable PDF with the corresponding texts at the right places. 

You can also define a workflow to make a searchable PDF copy and move the original scan to another pre-defined folder. You can also configure the OCRvision software to run at a pre-defined time or when your computer is idle.
