Automating custom scanning to searchable pdf

hey forum!

 

first time visitor question hope find answers for.

 

my office has function in documents scanned pdf canon adf scanner using acrobat xi pro. specific process follows:

1. insert documents(packets) adf (a packet can 1 page or more @ time)

2. open acrobat xi pro

3. select create/pdf scanner/custom scan

4. click scan, scan settings/parameters have been selected are

     a. canon dr-6010c scanner

     b. front sides

     c. autodetect color mode

     d. 300 dpi resolution

     e. letter paper size

     f. new pdf document output

     g. optimize scanned pdf

     h. make searchable(run ocr)

 

5. once scan/optimization complete. save scan specific folder on computer.

 

once docs have been scanned, ms access database displays saved pdf user can enter indexing information.

 

because of volume of documents scanned, our scanning team performs these same steps manually dozens of times everyday. so 1 of our users has scanned more 150,000 "packets" on 4-month period.

 

what i'm seeking method whereby of manual steps being performed today , performed automatically in kind of batch process or script , called button in access indexing database. additionally, i'd have acrobat save files kind of sequential filename. lastly, it'd plain awesome if use separator page between packets acrobat "knows" start over.

 

i'm accomplished in access database programming don't have clue how accomplish in acrobat. so, appreciated in advance , in quantities bigger can describe.

 

thanks!!
