(Archived) Find pdf's without OCR


Recommended Posts

I'm premium, but I am missing a particular document that I'm sure that I have scanned. However, searching on words I know is in this document reveals nothing. Therefore, is it possible to somehow search for the notes with pdf's that have not been OCR'ed?

AFAIK, there's no way to search for unprocessed PDFs. But this is a case where a descriptive title or adding keywords to the note would also have been helpful. If you know approximately when the document was added to EN, you could search by created date.

Assuming you scanned it as a PDF, here is a way to find all the PDF's (processed and not processed) in your local Evernote program.

Search for:

resource:application/pdf

And if you have a lot of PDF's you can narrow the search by adding a date range,

For example:

resource:application/pdf created:month-1
