wifinetguy 0 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I'm an Evernote Plus member. My question is pretty simple, I think. If I scan a PDF into Evernote with a utility that makes it searchable via OCR, does that make it searchable within Evernote? Thanks in advance. Link to comment
Level 5* DTLow 5,680 Posted October 17, 2018 Level 5* Share Posted October 17, 2018 The docs say pdf search is a premium feature However my experience is that ocr'd pdfs are search-able for all account levels. 2 Link to comment
Level 5* GrumpyMonkey 4,314 Posted October 18, 2018 Level 5* Share Posted October 18, 2018 Indeed, for many, many years the documentation has mistakenly said that PDFs are searchable for Premium and Business members. We've recommended before that they change the wording to indicate that PDFs get OCR'd for Premium and Business members. As DT noted, PDFs can be searched at any subscription level. One interesting thing about Evernote's OCR (still supplied by ABBYY?) is that it can be done in two languages simultaneously. That's pretty cool, and generally not available in other software, so it is sometimes a good idea to let Evernote do the OCR instead. If a document is OCR'd when you upload it, Evernote will use that version, and will not OCR it, so you have to make that decision before uploading. Link to comment
wifinetguy 0 Posted October 18, 2018 Author Share Posted October 18, 2018 OK. Great news. Thank you both for the replies. Seems that I can save the Premium upgrade charge. Link to comment
