The Pages search enables users to search for a document based on its page count or based on whether it contains text (whether that text was generated by OCR, extracted from an electronic file, or created in some other way). This search is primarily useful for locating documents that are not currently full-text searchable.
The Pages search enables users to search for documents by whether they contain image or text pages or by whether OCR processing has been applied to the images associated with that document. Select the first option to find documents that contain More Than, Exactly, or Less Than a specified number of pages. Select the second option to find documents with All Pages, Some, or No pages processed by OCR.
