How to Prepare Scanned PDFs for Better OCR Accuracy

Improve OCR output by checking DPI, contrast, orientation, and scan noise before extraction.

OCR accuracy depends heavily on source quality, not only the tool.

2

Resolution

Use at least 300 DPI to preserve character boundaries.

3

Contrast

Keep text/background contrast clear for stable recognition.

4

Orientation

Correct page orientation before running OCR.

5

Noise

Reduce scan noise to avoid false character detection.

6

Validation

After extraction, validate numbers, names, and email addresses first.
