This option adds a searchable PDF function to the scanning function.

  • The searchable PDF function performs OCR by the MFP on a document read with the scanner and embeds text data in the PDF. This permits PDF text browsing, automatic assignment of filenames, and automatic alignment of document orientation.
  • This option is provided with an SD card. By installing an SD card in the MFP, a functional icon is added to the control unit. It is not necessary to install software on a PC.
  • If this option is installed, various settings related to the searchable PDF function are available.
  • After reading of the document is completed (after it is read by the SPDF/ARDF and output), OCR is performed. Therefore, after reading is completed, documents can be collected from the document glass or SPDF/ARDF.
  • Other functions, such as the copy function and printer function, can be used during OCR.
