I waste time manually retyping text from scanned documents because I cannot copy and paste from the PDF.

Add OCR-based text recognition to scanned PDFs so users can select, copy, and paste text instead of retyping. This reduces manual effort and improves accuracy when reusing content from scanned documents.

This feature enables users to copy and paste text from scanned PDF documents by recognizing text within images. When a PDF is detected as scanned or image-only, the system can run OCR to extract readable text and create a selectable text layer. Users can then highlight text directly in the PDF viewer and copy it into emails, documents, spreadsheets, or forms. The primary purpose is to eliminate repetitive retyping and reduce errors caused by manual transcription. It supports common use cases such as pulling clauses from scanned contracts, extracting addresses and invoice details, and reusing content from printed reports or letters. The feature can also help when searching within scanned PDFs by making recognized text available for selection and reuse. It is especially useful for administrative work, data entry, and document processing workflows. By turning scanned text into usable content, it speeds up everyday tasks and improves overall productivity. The result is a smoother experience when working with scanned documents where copy/paste was previously impossible.
