OCRmyPDF: Add an OCR text layer to scanned PDF file
As mentioned in the other replies, Google's OCR is limited. OCRmyPDF is designed for PDFs. So if you download a 1000+ page public-domain dictionary off of Archive.org (which is something I do regularly), and you want to re-run the OCR because Internet Archive doesn't tune its OCR very well for multilingual works (if it all), then OCRmyPDF is going to beat Google's automatic OCR every time.
However, I recently paid a programmer to fork OCRmyPDF to give it the option to use Google's OCR engine instead of Tesseract. That fork is here: https://github.com/ualiawan/OCRmyPDF. It's more fiddly than the regular OCRmyPDF, and it requires a Google Cloud Vision account (which charges some fraction of a cent for each page OCRed), but it works well, and in some cases may produce better results than OCRmyPDF, although you must be sure to specify the language of the document.

If you have a HP Printer there is scanning software program (Free and Open source) called Not Another PDF Scanner. https://www.naps2.com/ It's simple to use and works really good with HP printers unlike the software that comes with the printers. Everyone who wants to scan with a HP printers needs this software.

Pdftool.org: modify pdfs offline in the browser
If you want to add page, remove page, split, merge, reorder, re-orient all or individual pages, ... May I recommend the glorious NAPS2 [1] ?
It's meant as a scanning tool but works just fine without scanning just drag and drop a pdf on it.
It doesn't do in-page editing or annotation, it's "one layer above" that.
