batch TIFF to PDF OCR

Hi, I'm looking batch of about 80 000 images of individual TIFF documents in separate OCR searchable PDF documents.  Any suggestions?

Thank you

Joe

You can use Adobe Acrobat for that. It is characteristic «Recognize text in multiple files» You can add folders of files and/or folders to perform OCR on it.

Go to tools > improve scans > 'Or recognize text in multiple files' > add files (now select as many files of any kind you want)

If any PDF is already open

Go to tools > improve scans > recognize text > in several files > add files (now select as many files of any kind you want)

These steps are also for Acrobat DC, for earlier versions of Acrobat, naming convention is quite different.

Hope it will solve your problem. Please feel free to ask anything you want.

Thank you.

  • Can I schedule a batch of files PDF OCR?

    I have Acrobat 9 Pro Extended. I want to schedule a batch process (for example, to run every day at 2:00), to browse a large directory tree, find new PDF files (for example, those created since the last scan, or in the last 24 hours) and process them using OCR in Acrobat. I know how to do OCR processing manually; what I would like is to have done: (1) automatically at a scheduled time and (2) only the new files, to avoid old files OCRing several times. Is this feasible?

    You're right: Acrobat can not be used unattended and offers no tools to help with this.

  • I need to adjust the dpi when batch exporting a PDF file in format TIFF, Acrobat Pro

    Hi all

    I have Adobe Acrobat Pro. I use action tool export batch than several (approx. 425 individual pdf) pdf to TIFF format files. My problem is the resulting TIFF images are of low resolution, and I do not know how to set the export settings to get Adobe to export it to 600 dpi or more.

    If I jump the batch and each pdf file manually I can actually adjust the settings to 600 dpi, but I have too many files to do it manually. Also, if I use the feature to "combine files", bring all within a multi-page pdf, then export to TIFF: I can set it to 600 dpi, but then each file exported with a different file name. Example: "MAP5" gets exported as 'Page x of x' so I would rename of 425 files to their original file name.

    Thanks in advance for your time and your help.

    In the category 'Convert to PDF' of preferences, you can specify the resolution.

  • Problems with the export of PDF to TIFF (a PDF page export also several images in TIFF format)

    Using Acrobat X professional, I'm trying to convert a PDF to multiple page in multiple TIFF files - that is, each page of the PDF file is converted to a TIFF file (for example, a PDF file with 50 pages would cause 50 TIFF).

    I created a remedy so that I can possibly process batches of PDFs. My action in two stages:

    (1) flatten layers

    (2) export all images as TIFF

    -the files are exported to a folder on a network drive

    -file settings are: Monochrome = CCITT G4 / grayscale = LZW / color = LZW

    -color management: RGB = off / off = CMYK / grayscale = off

    -conversion: color space: determine automatically / resolution: 300 pixels/inch

    -extraction: exclude the lower images: no limit

    My PDF is searchable (OCR has been applied). I checked the file to see if it has all the layers - this isn't. The file was created with InDesign.

    Basically, once the action performed there are several exported for each page - TIFF files and when I open the TIFFs they are parts of each PDF page. For example, if a single PDF page has three images on it then three TIFFs are exported for each image instead of a TIFF that is identical to the single PDF page. Then, when I try to treat a PDF with 50 pages that I'm left with is a folder with 150 TIFF files (and not 50 TIFF files - a TIFF for each page of the PDF).

    Here is an example of how files are renamed due to export:

      • HD_08_Issue2_E_Page_02_Image_0001.tif
      • HD_08_Issue2_E_Page_02_Image_0002.tif
      • HD_08_Issue2_E_Page_02_Image_0003.tif
      • HD_08_Issue2_E_Page_02_Image_0004.tif
      • HD_08_Issue2_E_Page_02_Image_0005.tif

    I tried to use the action on a PDF file that had not been OCR'ed and I had no such problem. The only thing I can think is that it is the OCR which is the origin of each page of the file PDF to split into multiple images? The majority of the files that I need to convert PDF to TIFF had applied OCR.

    Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

    In a Save command, you can use the export to TIFF in the output Format.

  • Page size when converting TIFF to PDF

    In my work I download documents to a Web site where you can only display and a save as TIFF images. Documents are scanned images of typewritten instruments filed with the County Clerk. When saving as TIFF, the documents are of varying sizes. After I have save as TIFF files, I convert to PDF using select (often multiple files at once), then right-click "convert to Adobe PDF. Files to convert to PDF without problem, except that they are of several different page sizes, depending on the size of the TIFF file.

    I use Adobe Acrobat X Standard (Windows 7 on a PC). Is there a way to configure so when convert TIFF to pdf, it will come out as a standard page size, such as legal 8.5x14? I know I can convert and then printing using the Adobe PDF printer, but that just adds another step.

    The answer would be different if I was using Acrobat X Pro or Acrobat XI? Thank you.

    TIFF files with a size of page and the conversion to PDF, TIFF page size is used.

    If you need to fix it in TIFF before the conversion or the PDF file after conversion. I think TIFF will be probably somewhere better, easier and less expensive to fix.

  • How can I batch 300 k than files PDF OCR or optimize them without having to open each file in the Acrobat user interface?

    The Adobe user interface is REALLY slow batch when a very large number of files of treatment.  However, the Adobe OCR tools are extremely good to process the documents I have.  Is there anyway to use technologies Adobe do this batch that does not require the Acrobat user interface for each file?

    Acrobat is an interactive tool, with very low volume automation tools. Your expectations are thousands of times too high. You are looking for a tool designed for industrial use of volume. These tools are often not user interface, maybe just a command line.

  • Quick pdf OCR clandestine

    Our Office receives documents by electronic mail that are usually not available, and our staff spends a lot of time using Adobes text recognition.  Is there a software that can convert PDFs within a searchable document quickly?

    Acrobat is not designed for OCR fair treatment. You may want to look at 3rd party products designed especially for the ROC to treatment. Many of them be server-based. Adobe offers a LiveCycle server that can perform OCRing. It is also perhaps hardware products dedicated to the OCR process.

  • Batch conversion of PDF to SVG

    Hello

    I'm the animation with Toon Boom that unfortunately has no SVG export.

    The only supported vector SWF and PDF formats, but I really need SVG.

    So my idea was frames to export as PDF and batch convert to SVG afterwards.

    I know that Illustrator is basically capable of that it has a very wide range of file format compatibility, but I guess it must be done via the script and I have no idea on the scripts.

    When searching Google and the forums here, I thought that most people need or vice versa (SVG in PDF format) or with any other formats.

    The only script that would meet my needs most is this:

    https://gist.githubusercontent.com/seltzered/4405256/raw/5727a25521093a794c2515976794c6454 39be744/IllustratorSaveAsSVGs...

    who's GOT to SVG, but I thought that maybe we can change it.

    So how about PDF to SVG? Can someone help me with this?

    Thank you!

    PS:

    I am already using Inkscape (and I've installed Inkscape for only that one of the reasons) + a shell script I found, but it is quite awkward.

    I prefer to do with Illustrator.

    I'm sure the script you have access to will do the job. Just insert the file type in this line:

    fileType = prompt ("select the type of Illustrator files you want to process.") For example: * .ai ',' ');

    That is to say:

    fileType = prompt ("select the type of Illustrator files you want to process.") For example: * .ai ',' * .pdf ');

  • TIFF to PDF problem

    I noticed that several others have had the same problem. When you attempt to convert a TIFF doc to PDF in a PDF package, it only converts the first page of the document and no one else. I can't say I'm happy to pay for a service that is clearly not functional.

    Are there measures to solve this problem? If I try to uninstall then reinstall, which would repair? Uninstall/reinstall is useful at all? My job requires a lot of files TIFF PDF files conversion, so it's very detrimental to my work. News would be useful.

    Hi Jenny,

    It is a known problem and our team of engineers working on it.

    I will update this thread in case I have any new information.

  • How to save a tiff to pdf image?

    Hello

    I don't see how to save a picture of BW tiff as a PDF one.

    I never get as save it as.

    Is this possible or should I use another program? If so, which?

    Thank you

    Serge

    I know Illustrator and InDesign for that. Just place your TIFF into one of them and save them in pdf format.

    In addition, if you have Acrobat Pro, you can open a TIFF grayscale (select all files) and save them in pdf format.

  • Edit a PDF OCR

    OK, so I tried my best to find it and the response, but I found nothing. I have a colleague who tries to change our OCR had the documents in PDF format to remove any imperfections on them like a line down on the side of a bad copy, etc.. We are using Acrobat Pro XI and it uses the change based on the painting. Now, here's the question that we touched, OCR PDF begins about 2 MB with 37 pages, after that she changed and painted the stakes, 36 pages, the size of the file is more than 15 times, it is original, which actually about 35 MB give or take.

    So we need is a way to remove errors and imperfections in the areas of the margin of the document without using paint and massively increase the size of the file. Any suggestions?

    The type of installation you talk whatever appearance. If you use the form of searchable OCR text, you can not change the look, the text behind the eyes. To be able to change the imperfections and others, you must use ClearScan for OCR. Then the text on the screen is what you get, not behind a picture. The rest is transformed into a collection of images that you can now select and remove. Care should still be used as the selection of objects often selects more than you think it would be.
