However, the system cannot recognize the image data as text. This means that you are not able to search the content of your document without using OCR (Optical Character Recognition). You can convert such image data into searchable text data by using OCR processing ("Recognize Text" function) of Adobe Acrobat 7.0. Operation 1. With Adobe Acrobat, open the PDF file for conversion. 2. Select [Document] -> [Recognize Text Using OCR] -> [Start] from the menu bar. 3. In the following window, configure the necessary settings, then click the [OK] button. ⇒ The text information is added to the image data by the "Recognize Text" function. For color documents, in the "ScanSnap Manager - Scan and Save Settings" HINT dialog box, select [Scanning] tab -> "Image quality" -> "Better (Faster)" or "Best (Slow)" and scan.
