I've been scanning work and home documents for about a decade in the (probably hopeless) quest for getting rid of reams of old papers.

It is also possible to open or import existing PDF documents and perform OCR on them via a menu option (the language can be set in the Preferences).

Customizable file name patterns (include for example date, time and machine name in the filename).

Saving to PDF (optionally compressing the scan inside the PDF to save disk space).

'Fake Duplex' mode to simplify scanning of double sided documents without a duplex scanner.

Scanning, OCR and straightening is done on multiple pages in parallel and you can even reorder or delete pages while PDFScanner is still working

Fully automatic straightening of crooked pages (deskew).

Intuitive and fast user interface to reorder, delete or edit pages.

Supported OCR languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian and Finnish.Optical character recognition to make the document searchable, allow to find it via Spotlight and other search tools or copy the text.Support for all scanners that are supported by the OS X Image Capture application (please check that using the scanner in Image Capture works before purchasing to be sure).When performing OCR, PDFScanner adds the recognized text directly to the scanned image as an invisible layer, so the text can be selected and copied just like in other PDF files. Most of them are however complex, slow or not really suited for scanning documents or letters. There are many applications for OS X that allow scanning of images or text. PDFScanner has been created with one simple task in mind: scanning and archiving documents as quick and easy as possible, and making them findable with Spotlight search.
