Can I use batch OCR software to create searchable PDFs for large groups of files at once?

Question:
What is the best OCR software for automating entire forms, including extracting information from data fields and sorting it?

Question:
To process invoices with OCR, will any OCR program work, or do I need a special type of invoice processing tool?
Answer:
Not all OCR programs can work for invoice processing. Some are only designed to make documents text-searchable, not to extract specific pieces of information and organize it in some way. For invoice processing, you need a document automation tool that can recognize data fields and extract text, sorting it into a database. For example, CVISION’s Trapeze can do this, using OCR to recognize text, and then going the extra step of organizing it in a useful way.

Question:
What types of text can OCR text recognition software actually recognize?
Answer:
OCR software can recognize virtually any printed scanned text. The key limitation is that it cannot recognize handwritten text, but most current OCR tools have significant flexibility in terms of the different fonts that they can recognize. One other limitation is the quality of the scanned image. If the resolution is very low, the OCR might not be able to process it. To minimize this problem, use OCR with advanced image processing to de-skew and de-speckle distorted scans.
