OCR Fails and Deletes PDF

Hey! I got this twice today:

  1. Tried to OCR a scanned PDF (OCR - To searcheable PDF).
  2. After a while processing a few pages, the file disappears from its original Group and appears in the Trash. The Trash part is particularly worrisome for automated or background OCR processes (I almost didn’t realize that the file was gone).
  3. No messages in the upper right corner ! button.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Are you sure that OCR failed? Usually this should be logged to Windows > Log. In addition, the option to move originals to the trash is probably enabled in Preferences > OCR. Are you able to reproduce this using a new database?

I just tried again after a restart and it worked. I will let you know if it happens again. Thanks!
