To: Never on my watch; PowerPro

“My graphic artist is examining it herself.”

That’s what caught my eye about the initial post on the long thread by Freeper PowerPro; he is a graphic artist. Many opinions; few experts.

Then I was pinged to the thread dedicated to the subject.

Please post your GA’s findings to one of those threads.

To: thouworm

Actually, I’m a “she”. :)

As to your point, someone else suggested that some scanning software breaks content up if it tries to recognize text. OCR technology.

My question then is, why are some non-text elements, like the pixels at the bottom of the form above the date and the sides of the document...why were they clipped or converted to a layer?

Also... and I don’t really know the answers to these questions and concede there might very well be a non-nefarious reason for these things...

But wouldn’t OCR (text recognition) convert recognized text into text rather than as a clipped image? Or is it only showing up as a clipped image in Illustrator and would show up as editable text in another application?
