■ Converting scanned images to searchable text with OCR
If you scan a text document, you will get an image of the document containing all the signs, letters,
and numbers. However, the image data cannot be recognized as text. This means that you are not
able to search the content of your document until processing it with OCR (Optical Character
Recognition).
You can convert such image data into searchable text by processing with OCR ("Recognize Text"
function) of Adobe Acrobat 7.0.
Operation
1. With Adobe Acrobat, open the PDF file you wish to convert.
2. From the menu bar, select [Document], and select [Recognize Text Using OCR] and
then [Start].
3. In the following window, configure the necessary settings, and then click the [OK]
button.
