2.If you want to perform automatic conversion into searchable PDF, click the [Yes] button, and if not, click the [No] button.

●ScanSnap is capable of making searchable PDF files by embedding textual information in PDF files, which are the image data scanned with the ScanSnap. There are two methods to use this function:

-Manually select only necessary PDF files to convert them into searchable files.

-Automatically convert PDF files added in the predetermined folder ([My ScanSnap] folder).

To select the former method, click the [No] button; for the latter, click the [Yes] button.

●If you want to know what the searchable PDF files are, refer to “Appendix 1. About Searchable PDF Files” on page 73.

●The “PDF Automatic Conversion Settings” dialog box can be hidden form view. Mark the “Do not show this message again” checkbox if you don’t want to see this dialog box again.

●You can change the “PDF Automatic Conversion Settings” later. For details on how to change the settings, refer to “3.4. Configuring Automatic Conversion Settings of PDF Files” on page 49.
