By now, many CPA firms are nearly 100% paperless, and those that aren’t should certainly consider it. Part of the paperless process involves a lot of scanning and management of PDF files. To get the most out of what Acrobat can do for a paperless firm, you need to become well-versed in Optical Character Recognition (OCR).
OCR can be both extremely useful and extremely frustrating. I get a lot of questions from my colleagues on OCR best practices. I recently came across a few excellent tutorials on the subject. They are not CPA-specific and are focused on Acrobat 9, but they present a ton of good information.
