A practical workflow.
Use the tools in the Windows application, then check the saved output.
Recognize the text
Use the recognition tools in Convert to create a searchable text layer. The OCR engine runs locally as part of the desktop workflow.
Review and save
Inspect word confidence and correct uncertain results. Search and select the recognized text before saving or converting to Word.
For archived paperwork and scanned reports
Use OCR for scans of letters, forms, invoices and project records. Handwriting, low resolution and damaged scans can reduce accuracy. Important names, dates and numbers should be checked against the source.
