Basics
Some preprocessing processes can be carried out in plusmeta to prepare objects for metadata recognition or other processes. This allows non-compliant PDF documents to be converted into PDF/A documents. Office formats, such as Word files or PowerPoint presentations, can also be converted into processable PDF documents. Text can also be extracted from a scanned paper document or image using character recognition.
The pre-processing processes can be carried out in projects in the workflow step Add content after the content has been uploaded.
The following help pages explain the individual pre-processing processes in more detail:

The pre-processing processes can be triggered in the first workflow step Add content. The following columns must be displayed:
