Jean, thanks. I haven’t had OCR to do for a while but I did try 4.51 and it seems more stable … certainly the interface is friendlier than Acrobat, which still feels like a 0.5.

@David: There is a slight chance you got a version with a bug that has already been fixed. Please try redownloading v. 4.5.

I found PDFpen crashes on OCR _EVERY_ time. to be fair I’m trying to do a large file, but I hope y’all get the 4.6 update out soon.

Skim is fine for annotations, but it cannot edit the underlying PDF text or images. If you are interested in a detailed comparison between PDFpen and Skim, you are welcome to check out our PDFpen 4 reviewer’s guide here: http://www.smileonmymac.com/PDFpen/PDFpen4revguide.pdf

Skim (.app) does much of what PDFPen does and is free.

OCR stands for “OPTICAL character recognition” not “OPTIMUM character recognition”
