Field notes
EliFinder’s described workflow starts with choosing a folder; the app reads its PDFs once and remembers them for later searches. Scanned pages are included through automatic OCR, and the page specifically cautions that faint or poor-quality photocopies may be read less accurately. Files can be grouped by client, case, or project without moving or copying them from their disk locations.
