[Question] Is there a way to get a coloured PDF scan with or without OCR?

Is it somehow possible get a coloured OCR PDF scan?
Or is it possible to switch off the OCR and get a coloured PDF scan?

Yes of course, but you would need to change code in a few places. I think the image is converted to grayscale during cropping and instead of starting the OCR Activity after cropping you would need to save the document to the DB.
But i'm actually planning to have such a feature in my closed source version of text fairy eventually.

Thanks for your answer. I'm not able to do that, so I have to wait.
Problem was that my scans where scanned and OCR was done, but the final file was b/w and don't look good (not readable anymore)
