Application questions

Can the OCR application process images and PDFs?

Yes. OCR Document Recognition processes images and PDFs in batches on your computer, extracting text, layouts and tables with source-image comparison and correction.

When should I export scanned pages to Word, Excel or searchable PDF?

Choose Word (DOCX), TXT or Markdown to edit recognized text. To work with extracted tables, check rows, columns and figures, then export Excel (XLSX). Choose searchable PDF for an archive whose text you can find later.

Which OCR models are available?

The application uses PaddleOCR, GLM-OCR and OvisOCR2. Video memory needs depend on the model and page complexity. Review preparation status in Novaber and the current requirements on this page.
