I’ve pdfed docs that printed cleanly, and previewed on the screens cleanly, but when pdfed were a mess. I’ve also sent pdf docs that looked fine in my computer, but then some of the users’ computer scrambled them, or misformated them, while other users’ showed cleanly. I think it happens when there is different formatting, or even different fonts used.

I can’t see why OCR would be used toward the end of the process, and I can’t imagine pasting and OCR segment without looking at it. Proofing is a simple standard function, and can be spread out across a large group if it needs to be done quickly.

My guess is the problems had to do with the final pdf.

She e-filed it at midnight, I’m guessing the OCR botched it and there was no one working at court that late to fix the scanning errors.

I am cutting Sidney slack on this one. Could be a variety of reasons that dont have to do with not using a spell checker.

I am interested to see if legal talking heads actually slam the spelling as they should know the issues with Efilings.

PDF docs looking fine on one computer and totally messed up on another is many times caused by using a non-standard font installed on the computer where it looks fine.

The remedy is to embed the font characteristics and glyph info inside the PDF itself, but that may balloon the size of the PDF, unless you provide the font to the user (then they install it themselves).
