Question

10,000+ Pages Per Day OCR

I am looking for a speedy solution to convert PDF documents to OCR PDF documents. I currently use ABBYY FineReader12, but it works at only about 1000 pages per hour and apparently I am violating the end user agreement by using the software for a commercial purpose. My scanners work at 90 ppm (aka 9000 pages per hour) meaning the weak link is the OCR conversion. I do understand the OCR conversion depends on hardware as well as software. Does Adobe have a good software option for large scale OCR?

    Not really. Acrobat is a personal low volume tool. watch out for licensing; if you are doing OCR automatically for multiple people you need something licensed for server use, not just commercial use. Often 100 times pricier.
