Turning document scans into searchable PDF files with the iOS OCR Module

Integration

The OCR capabilities require additional setup depending on your installation method. Please check out the installation guide to see if your installation method requires additional steps to make the OCR functionality work.

You can use the SDK's built-in PDF generator together with the OCR Module to create searchable PDF files, using either an SBSDKScannedDocument (or the legacy SBSDKDocument) object or an image.
