Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
To activate the OCR feature, click on the switch button on the right side of the document you want to apply the OCR on.
OCR is the process of converting a text image into a machine-readable text format. For example, if you scan a text document, your computer saves the scan as an image file. You can't use a text editor to edit, search or count words in the file.
However, you can use OCR to convert the image into a text document, the contents of which will be stored as text data.
Once you specified all your documents click on "Finish". You will be redirected to data source page:
