Hi everyone, a quick question (maybe a dumb one as there might be an obvious solution – just not obvious to me☹). We are getting ready over the next year to migrate hundreds of thousands of PDF documents to a new DMS system. However, most the PDFs are images and not text-searchable. Does anyone know how to mass convert PDF images into text—searchable documents (OCRd). We need to have the conversion done pre-migration. I know there are ways of using Adobe tools to do this type of conversion on a small scale, but I am looking for a solution with a little more “power.” It doesn’t even have to be a free solution if 3rd party software is required (note that we do have access to Adobe suite).
Thanks for any info/advice anyone may have!
