Hi
I've seen that the OCR in Version 8 (latest 8.0. build 334 in german) brings really rare output. To show you I have attached two documents and let the OCR run with the Option Editable Text and Images. So if you compare the pictures on Page 13 for example you see really awful things.
I know the first Option Searchable Image bings up the Document with now optical Bugs. But default is the middle Option.
I have some other documents (i can't share here) for example one with copied and scanned pages which don't brings good output from the OCR. OCR done by Ab*y or Ad*be brings a useable output. Sorry to tell.
So please check if there is something which is going wrong ....
Thanks
Tobias

Re: OCR has rare results
Hello TGE,
Thank you for the sample files here, As it is the images affected here, I am unsure how much we can do, but we can certainly take a look and see about improving this. Could I ask you to please send us a screenshot of your OCR settings before running OCR normally?
Kind regards.

Re: OCR has rare results
Hello Daniel
The default is the Editable Text and Picture Option. But this replaces also the "picture" of the PDF so we have use the first option because its mandantory for us to hold every information. And documents as the WO***.pdf is our buisness.
And i have some scanned pages which get a good OCR from Ab*y and A*obe but the OCR from PDF-XChange isn't useable. Sorry to tell but it seems that there is something going wrong.
Regards
Tobias

Re: OCR has rare results
Hello again TGE,
Thank you for the settings there, and I am sorry that we dont have this working quite up to par just yet. I have discussed this with the dev team and they mentioned that we are working on a new zoning function, that will allow you to correct our current "auto-zoning" function manually. I cannot say when this will be available, but it is in the works.
Currently the only way to avoid this is to do a manual OCR process, by using the snapshot tool:

Currently the only way to avoid this is to do a manual OCR process, by using the snapshot tool:
- 1. Select Snapshot tool
2. Drag a rectangle and right click on it to choose "OCR region" 3. Setup OCR as desired, and then move onto the next section.
