MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - Exporting PNGs from Notes to Evernote (on Max 2) to enable OCR image search

I have been playing with my Max 2 for about a week now, and I have noticed that I can get considerable jobs done on it.

Just one question: Is there any way to tell Note to export PNGs rather than PDFs when syncing with Evernote?

Evernote can OCR handwriting only if they are saved in image formats, so the current PDF sync shamefully falls short of being the most amazing possible feature, as Evernote fails to search in the files. Is there any way to force Notes to upload PNGs rather than PDFs?

For instance livescribe creates one Binder for itself and then creates a notebook for each notebook with every page represented with one separate note in Evernote, containing an image. That would be the ideal setting here.

It would also be great if we could exclude the template from the export to facilitate the image search. I have noticed Note saves the template and the handwriting as two superposed images, so it shouldn’t be technically daunting to exclude one of the two
