We have noticed this as well, but our implementation is the same as Preview so most likely if Apple fixes that implementation in an OS update it would resolve things for FoxTrot as well. We are not a specialized OCR product, but I'm sure those who are (OwlOCR for instance, which we were not familiar with) can do a better specialized job at this which we can then index, which is our core function in life.

Kind regards,
