How scanner apps writes PDFs
- • Scans are images of the page, sometimes with a hidden text layer from OCR.
- • The visible text is pixels, not letters.
What that means when you add a table column
- • Scanned pages are pictures of text. Use OCR PDF to make them searchable; typing into a scan is a separate, image based process.
What happens to the rest of the page
- • The new column's borders follow the table's own.
- • Columns share the table's width, so check that long values still fit.
