Hi,
I'm another one of those PC folks that is becoming seriously interested in the Mac now that Tiger is out. I was wondering if someone could answer a quick question for me? Does Spotlight index the OCR text that can get imbedded in TIFF files? I have lots of photos and scanned documents that I would bring over to the Mac and would hope to contiue to use the content. It seems that Spotlight can index the IPTC data in my photos so I am not so concerned there. Please correct me if I am wrong. Thanks in advance. |

Dunno, but a darned good question, and one my historical document researching wife will be interested in the answer to.
My guess is that an OCR-enabled-TIFF plugin wouldn't be much work. (Heck, if they're using a standard part of the TIFF description to embed the text in, it might already be done.) |
