This is a very slight correction from AppleSuperlatives' post on "Determine if a PDF needs to be OCR'd & Automate FineReader" at http://www.noodlesoft.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=905

The sample code is slightly off, here's the correct (tested!) script:

Code: Select all

tell application "PDFpenPro"
   open theFile as alias
   tell document 1
      ocr
      repeat while performing ocr
         delay 1
      end repeat
      delay 1
      close with saving
   end tell
end tell

I'm making this a new topic since the original title wasn't obvious that it helped with PDFPenPro. All credit goes to AppleSuperlatives.

One modification that may be needed. If you are using the latest version of PDFPenPro, you have to refer to it as "PDFPenPro 6"
