3 issues with Scansnap S1500M and DT3

Issue #1: on some scanned documents OCR cannot be performed.

Documents are not locked but still, the context menu is dimmed:

.
This error persists even if I move the document from Inbox to some other folder. Tedious workaround: move document to Desktop, delete it in DT3 and move it back to DT3. Than, OCR can be performed.

Isuue #2: scanning into DT3 creates two identical files.

Issue #3: in some cases ScanSnap reports an error:

scansnap%20error
However, file is always in Inbox, all pages correct. File cannot be OCR-ed (see Issue #1). My impression is that this error happens in case of multi-page scans. The funny part is that just one file is created.

Thanks for any advise on how to fix these issues.

P.S. In case anyone wonders why I don’t OCR document with ScanSnap the answer is simple: DT3 has much better OCR engine than ScanSnap. DT3 recognizes diacritical characters such as čČ šŠ žŽ, which is absolutely superb in comparison to ScanSnap.
