Searchable PDF Files
This mode enables you to perform OCR (optical character recognition) to extract data that can be recognized as text from the scanned document, and add it as a transparent layer of text to create a PDF file that is searchable.
For information on the optional products required to use this function, see "Optional Products Required for Each Function."
As an example, the procedure for selecting the Advanced Space as the storage location is explained in this section.
