This mode enables you to perform OCR (optical character recognition) on a scanned original to create a PDF or XPS file with searchable text.

You can set the Smart Scan mode and the Document Name OCR mode. Smart Scan is a mode which automatically detects the orientation of the characters on the original when sending it. The Document Name OCR mode enables you to use text extracted from the original as the filename of the document to be sent. You can set the number of characters to use for Document Name OCR. (See "Sending Methods.")

• This mode is available only if the optional Universal Send Advanced Feature Set is activated. For more information on the file format, see "Glossary."

• The encrypted PDF mode and [DocName OCR] cannot be used at the same time.

1. Press (Additional Functions) → [Communications Settings] → [TX Settings] under <Common Settings> → [OCR (Text Searchable) Settings].
