With our site upgrade earlier this week, edocr is now extracting all of the text out of every document published on our site and attaching it as a layer under the document that can be toggled by the reader. This content will allow viewers of published documents to access the text content of uploaded documents, facilitating screen readers and other assistive technologies. As an added bonus, this content can be more readily crawled and indexed by search engines, further enhancing the value of published documents as every word will now be searchable online. 

The team at edocr want our publishers to receive maximum value from their document content, and this is another big way we are doing that.

Questions, comments & suggestions always welcome at our help desk.

Hello from Accusoft, sorry this has taken us so long to update. We have been busy on edocr the last couple of months as I know you have noticed, and we have a lot more planned to do the next couple of months. Here are the major changes since we acquired edocr this past March, and stay tuned to this space for more exciting updates to come. Edocr & Accusoft are committed to making your documents work harder for you every day!  

So, what have we done? First and foremost we made edocr free of charge! That won’t last forever, but we will prove how valuable our service is over the coming months, then have such reasonable pricing levels, no one should be unhappy - it will be a bargain or we won’t do it!

Increased document limits from 5 to 1000 for free accounts

Replaced Flash uploader with JavaScript-based one

Streamlined the account creation process (all non-required steps removed from workflow)

Improved the look of numerous pages on mobile browsers (site-wide responsive design)

Allow download of original source document instead of PDF only

Add support for image files (TIF, PNG, JPG; in addition to previously supported document formats)

Reduce the time before an uploaded document is available for public viewing (from ~2-3 minutes to a few seconds)

Ability to view leads from uploaded documents enabled for all users (previously a premium feature)

And, saving the best and most awesome feature for last:

Replaced legacy viewer with the Accusoft Cloud Services HTML5 viewer

We will do a much better job in the future on keeping you updated on what’s going on with edocr. Thanks for following this blog and for using edocr. And we always welcome feedback and suggestions.
