Create a Batch and Upload Files

With a project prepared, create a batch to process the files you want to read. A batch defines a processing unit—Simple-OCR will run OCR for every file you upload to that batch.

Steps​

  1. Open the target project and click the Create Batch button.
  2. Enter a batch name and description so the purpose is clear.
  3. Choose Add Files and upload images (PNG, JPEG) or PDF files.
  4. Configure page ranges or rotation corrections if needed.
  5. Click Start Batch to upload the files and queue the OCR processing.

Tips​

  • If your files are large, split them across multiple batches to keep processing stable.
  • For PDFs, each page is converted into an image before OCR begins. Removing unnecessary pages in advance can save time.
  • If the batch remains in the Pending state, refresh the browser and click Start Processing again.

Once the batch finishes you can review the recognized text and export it. The next chapter covers the details.
