No Searchable PDF option in Epson Scan 2 software

I installed Epson Scan 2 software for my Epson Inkjet, but I notice that there are no option for Searchable PDF. I installed the ABBYY Findreader Sprint software,. but I don't see the searchable PDF option. Is there some trick to integerate ABBYY Finereader sprint to Epson scan 2.

Cheap PDF creation software frequently comes with many commercial scanners

PDFs are created in 2 possible formats
- OCR (optical character recognition) which are the searchable documents
- PDF image files, which are nothing more than akin to an image file (like a jpg), effectively a photograph of the original document, and cannot be searched

It is software that creates this latter result that comes with many scanners, and it difficult for 4th party software to make any difference.

You need to investigate scanning software that creates the PDF in searchable format from the outset

EDIT
I note from their website that ABBYY Finereader is indicated as OCR software. The searchable option may not be in the creation process. So, what happens when you just create the pdf file, save it, then open it with, say Adobe Acrobat Reader, and then try and do a search?
