OneDrive OCR
That's why we have UserVoice - request and vote for a feature so that the team can prioritize it. In this particular instance, there are already several items about OCR: https://onedrive.uservoice.com/forums/262982-onedrive/category/86090-onedrive-for-business?query=OCR
Vote/comment in one of them.
No issue voting on something everyone's been looking for, for apparently several years now. Which ultimately is why I asked the question, as I wasn't finding a clear answer via search.
So hey, off to vote on UserVoice.

It's just the way things work with most of the MS teams nowadays - having dozens of people/organizations request a feature on the forums or in person amounts less to votes on a uservoice page...
- Kevin MortSep 21, 2017Copper ContributorTrue - however my first question really was "does this work at all" - to which the answer appears to be "NOPE!" - which when you really think about it, is amazingly silly on MSFT's part, not that it's the first time.
I have no interest in opening another OneDrive account - which has to be a personal account, to do what I'm looking for here. Crazy. So yes, I did upvote on a uservoice page, but it seems no one in the business realm has a need for this but me and maybe two others.- Norm PervisJul 18, 2018Copper Contributor
I think there is definitely a need. I think most people....like me come to look and see if the feature is there (OCR) and if not, move on to something that does have it. Google Drive. Built in and searchable OCR. So Microsoft....your loosing business by not listening to your customers concerns.
