Converting Scanned Documents into Encrypted Searchable PDF
07SE-224
By using the Searchable PDF mode, you can convert paper documents into text searchable PDF files. For example, you can save space by digitizing paper documents such as curriculum vitae. Encrypting PDF files enables you to restrict unauthorized users from opening files and searching information. If you set a password when you send scanned documents, you can prevent information leakage that occurs when the documents are sent to the wrong destination.
Benefits of the Searchable PDF mode
The searchable PDF mode enables you to perform OCR (optical character recognition) to extract data that can be recognized as text from the scanned image, and add it as a transparent layer of text to create a PDF file that is searchable. This mode enables you to search necessary information quickly from PDF files.
Benefits of the Encrypted PDF mode
You can encrypt PDF files by setting a password. Only users who enter the correct password can open, print, or change the PDF. To use this function, the Universal Send Advanced Feature Set is required.
Required Condition
The Send function is available for use.
The Universal Send Security Feature Set is activated.
