PDF OCR X converts PDFs and images to text. A simple drag-and-drop utility for Mac OS X and Windows, that converts your PDFs and images into text documents or searchable PDF files. It uses advanced OCR (optical character recognition) technology to extract the text of the PDF even if that text is contained in an image. This is particularly useful for dealing with PDFs that were created via a Scan-to-PDF function in a scanner or photo copier.

PDF OCR X Features:
1. Works with any PDF, whether it is a scanned PDF, or a PDF generated from a document.
2. Easy drag and drop interface.
3. Support for multi-column documents and advanced formatting

The Community Edition is limited to single page PDFs. Please upgrade to PDF OCR X Enterprise Edition in order to convert multi-page PDF's. You can purchase an upgrade at solutions.weblite.ca/pdfocrx .
