PDF OCR is a simple drag-and-drop utility for Mac OS X, that converts your PDFs and images into text documents. It uses advanced OCR (optical character recognition) technology to extract the text of the PDF even if that text is contained in an image. This is particularly useful for dealing with PDFs that were created via a Scan-to-PDF function in a scanner or photo copier.
A "Community Version" limited to single-page images and PDFs is available for free. The "Enterprise Version" selling for $29.95 has no limit on the size of the PDF converted.
How It Works:
• Drag the PDF that you want to convert onto the PDF OCR icon.
• PDF OCR will show you a progress indicator as it extracts the text from your PDF.
• PDF OCR will prompt you when conversion is complete, and you can open your text file.
• Download PDF OCR and place it in your Applications folder.
• Drag the PDF OCR icon down to your dock so that you can easily access it.
• Now you can drag your PDFs onto the PDF OCR icon on your dock to have it converted to text.
