Convert any PDF or graphic file into searchable PDF, RTF, HTML and TXT

Searchable PDF

OCRKit is a simple and streamlined Mac application to convert your PDF or image graphics into searchable PDF.

OCRKit uses OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology to recognize the text in the graphic, which is particularly useful for PDF received via e-mail, created by DTP, office applications, with a scanner or copier.

OCR Engine

Create searchable PDF simply by dragging a document on the OCRKit application or dock icon.

The OCR engine supports the following languages:

Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Polish, Portuguese, Rumanian, Russian, Serbian, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Norwegian.

Auto rotation

The auto-rotation allows to determine the orientation of each scanned sheet automatically. Therefore avoiding the need to manually pre-sort a stack before the scan. While the auto-rotation works independantly of the OCR, the feature also helps to improve OCR results.

Multi-Page Documents

No limits in the number of pages of the PDF or TIFF document. No limits on the number of pages that can be processed each day.

Simply Drag and Drop

Just drag and drop the document onto the OCRKit application or dock icon and the files are going to be converted instantly.
