Hello all,
I have an S1300i and am wanting to know others experiences about the best DPI for B&W and Color scans so that OCR can be used. I don't really like the software that is bundled with the scanner and will be looking to use something else in the future so any advice about that would be appreciated too.
Do I have do make any changes in the OCR options in the ScanSnap settings, namely regarding the "select OCR option" and the "set marked text as keywords and converty to searchable pdf" settings?
I am presuming that providing I get a good quality scan that I can then use that pdf via OCR software in the future without having to do anything special with the scanner setting at the time of scanning?
Many thanks for any help. I would like to get this right from the start.
I should mention that I will mainly be scanning documents, occassionally containing images but mostly text. Being able to search these for words would be helpful.
