PDFSHXTHRESHOLD (System Variable)

Sets the percentage of the selected geometry that must match a font before the geometry is converted to text objects.

Type:Integer
Saved in:Drawing
Initial value:95

This system variable provides direct access to the Recognition Threshold setting in the PDF Text Recognition Settings dialog box of the PDFSHXTEXT command. The percentage applies to each cluster of geometry analyzed during the conversion process. A low value creates text even when some characters aren't recognized. A high value ensures the closest matching selected font is used if possible.

The valid range is 1 to 100.
