Question

Search for scanned pdfs by content

Hi! Is it possible to search pdfs scanned with Adobe Scan by content? I'd like to be able to search for "invoice" and see all scanned invocies. I tried in Adobe Scan, in the web interface (https://documentcloud.adobe.com/) and through Acrobat Reader DC. OCR worked fine, I can copy the text from the pdfs, but can't search for it.

    Looking at the tools available in my Document Cloud account, I have to say no. That is a feature of the Adobe Acrobat Standard (Windows only) or Adobe Acrobat Pro (Mac and PC)
