In WebAccess these actions have to be done at point of import or provided by DCC as they are not available in WebAccess as drop down actions to perform once the file are imported. I've also noticed that the PDF files don't get queued up in DCC.

Hi Steve, 

You can generate pages directly from the main Web Access UI. You need to use DCC for OCR'ing image pages, but that's the same as during import. 

I was able to generate the text manually using the generate Searchable Text, but I believe you have a bigger issue as it should have been generated automatically on import as those functions (Generate Pages and Text) were selected at time of import.

Hi Steve, 

If you are talking about PDFs specifically, you should check if they have text streams. By default, text generation on PDFs does not use OCR (since you need the generated pages for that) - instead it takes the text stream directly. If they do not have text streams, than standard text generation will cover not them. Once pages have been generated, generate text always OCR's them, so it no longer matters if they have text streams.

To ensure that OCR happen on import (to generate text even without text streams), go to 'advanced options for PDFs' in the generate text section in user options and ensure 'OCR documents without a text stream when generating pages' is checked.
