I Agree with you on that point – I scan a lot of PDFs and it takes time to "add" the OCR layer in a self-scanned picture based PDF. Just convert any jpeg-text-file to PDF and see if sony can highlight the text. I am pretty sure that is not possible. However with acrobat pro (or other software) you can scan the picture-based PDFs and so add the OCR layer.
