Question:
Does PDF OCR differ in any way from other types of OCR, or does it just come as part of general OCR toolkits?
Answer:
You will often find software toolkits with OCR that supports PDF, as well as other files. Maestro Recognition Server from CVISION is an example of this. Its OCR engine supports PDF, TIFF, JPEG, and seven other formats to give users flexibility with the types of files that they can use. PDF is a commonly used format because it is extremely convenient for sharing and storage. For this reason, it is especially important for OCR tools to support PDF.
