Make a scan searchable in a scanned form
Many forms are just drawn boxes, not fillable fields. Type into their empty cells in the form's own font, sign, and send it back without printing. Add an invisible text layer so you can search and select the words on scanned pages.
How to do it
- 1.Open OCR PDF.
- 2.Add the scanned PDF.
- 3.Download the searchable PDF.
What people change in a form
- • Empty boxes and table cells
- • Placeholder text
- • Dates
- • Signature
Details
- • Up to 20 scanned pages are recognised at a time.
- • Pages that already have real text are skipped.
Questions people ask
+Does OCR change how the page looks?
No. The text layer is invisible and the scan stays as it is.
+Do I need to convert the scan to Word first?
No. MythosPDF edits the scanned page itself. There is no conversion, so the page keeps its look.
