OCR PDF: Searchable Scans
Private browser processing
English OCR beta. Scanned pages become searchable while their appearance is kept as an image. Pages already containing text are retained. Check names, numbers and recognition errors.
Before using OCR
Use clear upright scans. Handwriting, low contrast and complex columns may be recognized poorly. Up to 20 pages and 50 MB. Initial OCR assets require a network connection; document recognition happens on your device.
