    You were saying to use ctrl F to magic the problem away. That requires OCR.

    That’s the whole problem - there’s no one magic trick to solve the issue. It requires manual scanning and manual review.

    Some archotectural or site plan building sets include 200-page rolls of Arch E sheets of mylar. For reference, laid out on the ground that would take up about 6-times the floor area of a 2-car garage. That’s over 10 hours of just scanning.

    Some of those pages contain 6pt font notes, and we’re required to review it ALL manually because there’s a bunch of information we’re not allowed to release in an ORR (PII, certain critical public infrastructure details, security-related issues, email addresses, information hinting at the identity or residence of anyone related to a retired court officer, and more).

      Uhh… because you specified emails and text messages. Which don’t require OCR. So it can be used in THOSE situations. I also never said it was this magic do all, I specified it was a TOOL to HELP.

      If you can’t even read a comment before responding, I’m done. Cheers troll!

        I made a post that was 3/4 about OCR-related issues (including why it’s specifically an issue in emails with embedded images containing text). You made a flippant reposnse that didn’t address OCR issues and called me out as ignorant and lazy.

        I responded explaining some OCR issues again. You called me technologically illiterate for not doing a text search.

        So I explained for a third time that you can’t just trust ctrl-F, and now you’re saying I’m the one not bothering to read what I’m replying to.
