Convert Scanned PDF to Searchable PDF
#4
In China we just send the book to a Taobao shop, they unbind your book, scan it, ocr it, rebind your book, (maybe slightly damaged), send you a text pdf via Baidu and your book by post.

You can do all this yourself, but it is a hassle. I don't have a duplex scanner, so I scan odd pages and even pages, then merge them, then ocr them.

Forget it! A 600+ page German grammar book cost me 60 Yuan, less than US$ 10, really not worth doing it yourself!
