Frequently asked questions
Can I make scanned works searchable?
Yes. OCR creates a text layer over the scan, allowing you to search terms and copy excerpts from the collection.
Is there a file size limit?
The practical limit is your computer's performance, not a server quota. Large documents work, but may take longer to process.
