Yesterday I did something pretty cool. I took all 460 pages of my assembly manual, scanned it and made it text searchable. Now, if I want to look something up, I type in a key word like "vacuum" and I instantly find every reference to the word in the manual. Doesn't recognize the hand writing though. This isn't Cyberdyne...yet 👾

Slow day, Jason?
That is kewl....makes finding what you're looking for a little quicker. The handwritten notes are important for keeping up with updated parts/changes in assembly methods, etc. Perhaps you can go in and enter that data manually?

Oh yes, no one was in the office so I figured let's try this! Very happy with the text recognition accuracy! Manually entering the handwriting is a great idea!
