Settings for Creating Searchable PDF/XPS/OOXML

The Searchable PDF/XPS/OOXML mode enables you to perform OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to extract data that can be recognized as text from a scanned image. The text can then be added to a file to create a PDF/XPS/OOXML file that is searchable.

If you select [OCR (Text Searchable)] for [PDF], [XPS], or [OOXML] as the file format, you can set the Smart Scan setting, and set the number of characters for the Auto (OCR) in File Name. Smart Scan is a mode that determines the text direction to detect the alignment when sending a document. Auto (OCR) in File Name is a mode that automatically uses the first text scanned by OCR in the document as its file name. This setting is specified in [File Name] in [Options] on the Scan and Send screen. (See "File Name.")

For information on the optional products required to use this function, see "Optional Products Required for Each Function."

Select [Off] if you do not want to perform Smart Scan.
