run OCR as batch

Post by asiegel »

I use PDF-XChange Editor Plus V9.1 to convert scanned PDF to searchable PDF using the ORC function.
The result is very good but time consuming because we have a lot of cocuments.

Is there any comand line option to open pdf use ORC and save?

Hello asiegel,

We have a separate product - PDF Tools:
https://www.pdf-xchange.com/product/pdf-tools
Which can be used for batch processing of multiple files.

So you can e.g. load a few hundred files in Tools, and let it run OCR on them overnight, without further input from you once it has all been set up.

I am afraid that such a batch can not really be done with the Editor alone, but an Editor license can be upgraded to a PDF Tools one if necessary.

Kind regards,
Stefan

Dear Stefan,
that seems to solve my issue.

How to download the test version?

The link in volume pricing Chart is not working:

QUOTE: We recommend that you test out the free version of the software to ensure that you are satisfied with the application before making a purchase, as we do not offer refunds after the release of license keys.

best regards
Alex

Hello Alex,

The link in my above post should have been to the PDF Tools product page, and there should be download links, but please try this direct one instead:
