Hello,
We have large pile of drawings that we have scanned (thank God for summer students), I am planning on putting some into enterprise for the purpose of scanning content. Is OCR required on them prior to inserting into the system? Is there a practical limit to the amount of information that can be put into Enterprise and still have a good (timely) content search?
Thanks
What format are the files in? I did some experimenting with the tif OCR last fall. Had mixed results. http://www.3dvision.com/wordpress/2012/10/22/epdm-works-with-scanned-paper-drawings/
Generally I think the pdf iFilter is better than the Tiff. I've never experiemented with the ones you have to pay for.
The content search runs with Microsoft indexing. If you have the RAM and disk space I wouldn't worry much about a practical limit. You can turn the OCR on after or before the files are in the vault.
