Hi all,
using a M2 MacBook Air today, amidst working with DT 3, OCR quitted working, before this… no problems. Besides this determination of duplicates failed to detect duplicates some obviously different files were identified as duplicates. I tried:
Restart DT 3
Restart Mac
Deleted “Abby”-folder in …/library/application support/DevonThink 3
nothing made OCR work again. Any suggestions strongly appreciated …

It’s not my PDF, I got them from another person. This seems to be a (the?) problem. When I open the PDF and “print” it to pdf then, with the newly generated pdf, OCR works fine. But the. problem with different files recognized as duplicates persists.
Yes, strict recognition is on. It seems as if the problem came when OCR yesterday quitted working. The two files (WORD documents) have the same size in DT database. I spend one and closed it again - after this the sizes differ and thee files are no longer recognized as duplicates.
Another workaround for the PDF and OCR: right-click and “save as paginate PDF” with OCR as second step works.
Thanks for the fast response!
