PDF OCR

Creates searchable PDF. It performs a text recognition on the image contents of the PDF and makes them searchable. This is one of our premium features. A point to be noted is that call cost for this action is twice the number of pages in the document. i.e. if OCR is performed on 5 page document, the call cost would be 10.
