i scanned a novel, then in acrobat clicked ocr, searchable image. processed it. so now it's a searchable/highlightable pdf. what i realized is that it's better to split the scanned book pages into two, so you have one (book) page per pdf page. that way there is no need to adjust page layout in reader to 2 column layout (which is a problem because it splits the scan into four parts, two columns, two rows, and no option for two columns, 1 row). sorry i might be using ocr term incorrectly; it says ocr in acrobat when i convert an image only pdf into a searchable pdf.
