Greetings:

I have several hundred scanned documents that I need to run the OCR text recognize. Is there a way to do multiple documents at one time?

Thank you
Jennifer

Hi Jennifier,
Yes, with Acrobat Pro 7 you can use a Batch Sequence to OCR multiple PDFs that contain the scanned image of textual content.
