About Aquaforest Searchlight
Ensure your documents are 100% searchable with Aquaforest Searchlight's automated OCR for SharePoint, Office 365, and Windows. Aquaforest Searchlight automatically takes non-searchable documents such as Images PDFs, scanned image files, and faxes and convert the files to fully searchable PDF format. These types of files need to be processed with optical character recognition (OCR) technology to create a text version of the file contents which allows a searchable PDF to be created by merging the original page images with the text. This enables the file to be searched. For on-premises SharePoint you would install Searchlight on an on-premises server, communication is made between Searchlight and your on-prem SharePoint via standard Microsoft APIs and the document processing is performed on the server where Searchlight is installed. All our products are supported on virtual machines including Oracle VM virtual box.
