For scans I know won't OCR (eg, children's drawings) I will move them straight from Fresh to OCRd to maintain the image quality.Matthew Grayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15333035196528907111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2438737730903169499.post-107206599385633262008-12-25T15:54:05.916-05:002008-12-25T15:54:05.916-05:00Matthew-<BR/>I was going to pull the trigger on yep but would like to know if you still utilize the same workflow? Did you buy the other products (leap and deep) that bundle with yep? When you OCR a document with abbyy does it affect the image of the original pdf? nice postNKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08268396349023694671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2438737730903169499.post-76451366758629064402008-09-25T14:52:55.092-04:002008-09-25T14:52:55.092-04:00Does anyone know how to change the file type/creator of a regular PDF file so that FineReader will scan it? I get downloadable bank statements which I cannot OCR due to FineReader being picky about the files it will work with.kiphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08826172836632348898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2438737730903169499.post-23475414630928108802008-09-08T10:52:50.669-04:002008-09-08T10:52:50.669-04:00Please respond to kiritvora@gmail.comKirit Vorahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05540048927987624585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2438737730903169499.post-79757017017180910192008-09-08T10:51:38.576-04:002008-09-08T10:51:38.576-04:00Matthew, <BR/><BR/>I have recently acquired ScanSnap. I am very excited about it. Here is my work flow. I would like your comments on this. <BR/><BR/>I use ScanSnap Manager to create a profile for Fine Reader by turning off quick scan. <BR/><BR/>When I installed Yap, it created a folder called Yap Documents. <BR/><BR/>I have configured Fine Reader to put all its documents in the Yap Document folder. So here it goes. All the documents that need to be scanned and OCRed are put into ScanSnap so they get scanned. Then they get OCRed by Fine Reader. In the preferences of Fine Reader, I have clicked “Ask Me” for the name of the file. So, I give it a unique name, something that will be relevant. <BR/><BR/>Once a week I go into this folder and drag all the documents to EverNotes desktop application where I have created a notebook for PDFs only. So, locally when I am looking for a document, I look through Yap and remotely I find them through EverNotes. This way I have the best of both worlds.Kirit Vorahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05540048927987624585noreply@blogger.com
