A lot of my work requires search within pdfs. An OCR-compatable flag for pdfs would be really helpful, as I upload many pdfs that aren’t. I’ve started an internal flag,as this lets me know which pdfs I need to update. But this is extremely incomplete.
Thank you for your feedback, @anna. We agree that we could communicate this better to users, for example, through a help center article. I’ve shared your thoughts with the team, and added your +1 for processing PDFs with OCR software on upload to our internal feature tracker.
Thanks for your reply.
I understand that processing the OCR would be a major step. My suggestion was not requesting that feature, though, this would be great! Rather I would simply like a flag on whether the uploaded pdf was already OCR-compatible or not.
