DTPO - Easy on/off of scanning "convert to searchable PDFs"

I wish that there was an easier way to toggle “Convert to Searchable PDF” on/off when scanning rather than having to remember to go change it in the Preferences.

I often find that I’m scanning images or other documents that the filename is sufficient and I don’t need to be able to search inside the document. This would speed up scanning and keep files sizes smaller.

Thanks for listening.

A different approach might be to scan the documents first (without OCR) and then to OCR only the necessary ones.

That’s what I end up doing, but it’s more work than adding a toggle button.
