Maximize productivity with the eDiscovery Assistant for
searchable PDF
PDF files are everywhere and can come from a variety of sources. They
can include scanned pages, embedded images, and other types of
information. Yet, many of these elements don’t include searchable text.
The new eDiscovery Assistant for searchable PDF is a revolution in
safely converting a single PDF or batches of PDFs of all types into
completely searchable documents. Now you don’t have to open PDF files
individually, or use an OCR process that may unintentionally wipe out
valuable information.
Access and convert documents in the cloud
Storing, sharing, and archiving documents using cloud storage
services is a fast and convenient option today. OmniPage is designed to
easily connect to a variety of cloud storage and online document
websites. Now you can access and convert documents stored in Windows®
Live SkyDrive, GoogleDocs, Evernote, Dropbox, and many other storage
options. You can even open documents directly from one cloud service,
convert them, and store them in a different cloud service – all in one
convenient step.
Take advantage of the most accurate OCR solution
PC Magazine’s independent tests confirmed that OmniPage is the most
accurate OCR solution. Now, it’s easier than ever for re-use content
from existing documents. A 27% increase in accuracy translates directly
into fewer word errors and less editing. With accuracy levels up to 50%
greater than most alternatives, you’ll spend dramatically less time
converting documents.
And since electronic archiving and retrieval depends heavily on OCR
accuracy, accurate conversions mean more accurate document retrieval.
OmniPage’s increased accuracy also helps reduce the time required for
proofreading.
The most accurate conversion in over 120 languages:
OmniPage delivers unprecedented accuracy at a level greater than 99% for
over 120 different languages.
Financial, legal, and medical recognition:
Recognition dictionaries for financial, legal, and medical specialties

within a wider context of the document's text to facilitate more
accurate corrections.

dynamic view of the original document's text image - so you don‘t have
to second-guess your corrections.
Individual character training: IntelliTrain proofing
also allows specific individual characters or symbols to be learned,
ensuring better accuracy in subsequent conversions.
