User interface

The tool makes a very good impression in the visual department because it provides a clean and intuitive design. The utility can also be controlled via the command-line console.

Importing and previewing options

Total PDF Converter OCR employs an Explorer-like panel that allows you to browse throughout the folders and files stored in your computer. Plus, you can preview the PDF files directly in the main window, zoom in or out of the page, and make the app show the actual size, fit to width or show the whole page.You can also check out details about each item, such as name, size, type, modification date, attributes, title, author, subject, page size, as well as total number of pages. Subfolders can be included/excluded.

Conversion tweaks

Total PDF Converter OCR supports batch processing which means you can select multiple PDF files and convert them at the same time. Plus, you are allowed to filter the results displayed in a folder using file masks (e.g. PDF, PS, EPS, PRN).You can convert PDF files to various file formats, namely DOC, RTF, XLS, HTML, BMP, JPEG, GIF, WMF, EMF, PNG, EPS, PS, TIFF, CSV, or plain text file format. The program lets you choose the saving directory, output each page of the original document to a separate file, delete the original files, as well as open the destination folder when the conversion is done.We have tested Total PDF Converter OCR on Windows 8.1 Pro and noticed that it carries out a task quickly but this pretty much depends on the size of the document. You can monitor the progress of each converted file and pause the task. It eats up a moderate amount of system resources.The output results to DOC file format are not quite amazing. Text data found in tables is messed up, and the overall structure of the original document is not preserved. However, the image output results are excellent.

Alter PDF data to JPEG file format

In case you intend to turn your documents into JPEG images, you should know the tool has to offer several configuration settings. You may adjust the JPEG quality, extract only user-defined pages, change the image DPI, combine pages into a single file, and set up file naming rules.

Finally

All in all, Total PDF Converter OCR includes several handy features on the list and adopts a user-friendly layout for helping you process PDF files in batches. However, it still needs functionality improvements related to its OCR engine for delivering better results.
