gammaman 0 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 That sums it up. Every document that is scanned (Fujitsu ScanSnap ix1600) results in 2 identical notes and I can't figure out why or how to stop it Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,077 Posted January 29 Level 5* Share Posted January 29 Hi. Scan to a PC folder, then transfer all the files to an Import folder? Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,841 Posted January 29 Level 5 Share Posted January 29 Ok it’s a Mac folder, but you get the message. Never save directly into an import folder (especially when you want it OCRed as well), don’t use the „Scan to Evernote“ options any more. Which way are you scanning ? I use my ix500 with Scan Snap Home, but the ix1600 has more options. Link to comment
ThomH 3 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Hi, why do not use the "Scan to Evernote"? That one serves me well for a few years now. Did I miss something? Tom Link to comment

I prefer scan-to-folder because I can merge, edit, re-name and fix issues more easily there before using an import folder to add the files to Evernote. Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,841 Posted February 3 Level 5 Share Posted February 3 My scanner (Fujitsu ix500) relies on software installed on my Mac for the OCR. It's a natural for me to scan to the Mac, let the OCR happen, rename the file with a "good" filename and then save it directly into an Import folder. The file name becomes the notes title - setting it straight before avoids later rework. The embedded OCR makes sure I can always export pdfs from EN, and still have full searchability. 1 Link to comment
