Smarter OCR with New OcrMode Parameter

We’ve just upgraded our PDF to OCR converter with a new parameter: OcrMode. This powerful setting lets you control exactly how OCR is applied to your PDF pages.

Here’s what you can do:

  • Auto (default) – OCR runs only where needed. Pages that already contain text are skipped.
  • Always – OCR is applied to every page, keeping existing text while adding recognition for images and other visual content.
  • Reprocess – OCR is applied to the whole page, replacing the existing text layer with a fresh one.

Key benefits:

  • Faster results with Auto
  • Full recognition with Always
  • Clean, uniform text layers with Reprocess

Take control of your OCR workflow and fine-tune it for speed, accuracy, or consistency - depending on your needs.
