    Scanning to a Searchable PDF file


    Whoops! My bad. I looked in the HP Solution Center and found an entry to scan to a searchable PDF file. Am a happy camper now.

    Windows: PDF generated by «Microsoft Print to PDF» is not searchable. Why not?

    Not only it’s not searchable but:

    • the text cannot be copy-pasted
    • the links are not clickable.
