# Process files

> Digitize documents.

Enterprise Single-tenant

The *Process files* step converts various document formats into machine-readable text. Most flows begin with this step, but you can place the step anywhere in a flow. If the preceding step outputs `.ibdoc` files, the OCR operation reverts to the original source files.

> **Warning**
>
> For advanced apps, don't change any *Process files* configuration. The default digitization profile is configured for optimal results across supported document types.
