1. Re: How to turn off OCR
LoriAUC Jun 22, 2012 6:22 AM (in response to dukemike)OCR doesn't automatically start when you open a PDF, only if you sent this preference for image-types files like TIFF. What I think you've run into is the Accessibility tool to read a document out loud -- this tool will perform OCR on the document text so it can be read out loud. Try turning off any assistive technology you might have on your system. If this doesn't work, you might try the suggestion in this discussion "Reading Untagged Document" but... I don't have a screen reader.
