Re: How to remove previously OCRed text from scan [Paperless Office]
it would not work for pages which have editable text in place. Rasterizing pages is not a necessary part of the process. Editable text is already searchable so that is great news. I want to be able to run PDF Tools on 100s of PDFs automatically and get the best results so this brings us a step clos...

Automatically recognize PaperSize during Scan [Paperless Office]

Re: The OCR tool exists 3+ times. Which one to use?
Got it the GUI that comes up is actually used in the GUI products like the Editor so it comes with more options... ie the GUI isn't made only for the PDF Tools... But underneath they use the same engine. Thanks for the explanation that makes sense

Re: How to remove previously OCRed text from scan
My use case is a whole folder structure of files that were OCRed using old technologies. Some are scans, some are digital created PDFs (ie text), some have bookmarks. So reprinting it won't work. And just running OCR doubles the already existing text. I imagine many of your customers don't know that...

Re: OCR Accuracy: Auto vs High
Got it. My intuitive concern with Auto was that it might prioritize speed over accuracy.
Maybe renaming it to "Prioritize Speed" and "Prioritize Accuracy" would be more accurate?

OCR Accuracy: Auto vs High [Paperless Office]
I desire the best possible OCR result. And this post ([https://forum.pdf-xchange.com/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=35943]) seems to suggest that using an Accuracy of Auto is better then using High.
Could you please confirm if that is correct?
Thank you,
Patrick

OCR has been implemented in multiple tools with slightly different options. I've had also different OCR results using them.

Is there a keyboard shortcut to rename the new PDF documents that are created in the Split Tool?
In Windows Explorer it's F2 which would be very convenient if it was implemented.

How can I use PDF Tools to - on pages which are covered by an image (ie a scanned page) - remove the existing text layer - OCR the page again and add a new text layer - ideally if a page is already text based (ie any image is ...
