OCR page flags and rasterize

Know which pages were OCR'd and how to export non-searchable output.

Export and proof | 1 min read

Pages that went through OCR are flagged in review so you can scrutinize them more carefully. OCR feeds detection; it is not written back as a searchable text layer in the PDF.

How it works

Output scan

Page 2 still contains 010203-1234

Verification re-extracts text and leftover bytes.

Download refused

Sensitive text survived apply

Jump to the page, box it, finalize again.

The remaining risk on a scan is the bitmap itself. Apply rasterizes any page where a redaction box overlaps image content.

Use Rasterize in the Export wizard when you want every remaining vector page turned into an image as well.
