  • • Many can skip blank pages and add a searchable text layer.

What people change in an agenda

  • • Session times
  • • Speaker names and titles
  • • Room or link details
  • • Breaks and order of items

Questions people ask

+Why does search find nothing now?

A scan is a picture of text. OCR adds the words as invisible text so search can find them.

+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.
