I've been busy scanning hundreds (probably thousands) of pages, manuals and documents with my ScanSnap, which I LOVE.
Then someone mentioned that PDF was a large format taking up all kinds of room and that I should be using TIFF.
Now, for me, I'm almost done and I have a 15+ pound bag of motorhome, tax, tool, computer, whatever paper scanned into the computer and it's sitting just over 600mb, which is fine for me.
My question is this, if I had used TIFF instead of PDF, would it be text searchable like the PDFs?
I am so excited, I've actually been able to find out how to reset every little clock, weather station, etc. that I own with just a simple search.
