Are there any good products for batch scanning and OCR of documents? Or services?

    If it’s all pretty much letter/legal size (or international equivalent), the Canon imageFORMULA DR-C230 (and similar models) do a great job. The scanning software it comes with will scan to PDF and includes OCR.

        It’s been a while since I used mine, but worst case, your PDF app does the OCR, whereas this machine scans large batches both quickly and reliably.

        (I stopped using mine because I switched from Mac OS to Linux. I got 10 happy years from it.)

    I can recommend naps2 as a scanning application. But you still need either a lot of time or a proper document scanner.
