OCR to filename

Hello,
Is there a way to highlight a portion of a page (preferably of a non-text recognized) and have Acrobat run OCR on the selected area, and have it automatically save the results into the filename? I've been searching for hours with no results.

Thanks!

Hi --

No I don't think there's a way to do what you are looking for. The only thing I can suggest is that you OCR the entire page, and then delete what you don't want.
