Re: infoprint server: make the pdf's searchable. -- MIDRANGE-L

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

Probably not... if it's converting it how most convert AFPDS its
making a raster image PDF.

Now, I've been hearing rumors for a couple years that Adobe is going
to make reader OCR capable so you CAN search these types of PDF files.
But for now no dice that I know of.

I do have other options available besides AFPDS that may be worthwhile
if you're interested... it's my own version of overlays using PDF
files. Feel free to contact me offline with questions.

is there some setting or method to allow the PDF to be "searchable"?
