How to use OCR and Scan feature | Adobe Acrobat Pro DC

Tôi muốn dịch tài liệu PDF từ ảnh sang tiếng việt, bạn có phần mềm nào ko? mà giữ nguyên dịnh dạng

Hi, just a quick question. Which of the OCR programs are you recommanding in the following case: After an 2-month intensive language course in Mexico I have more than 300 handwritten pages with vocabulary lists . So the left side of the page is in Spanish and the right side in English . In an act of cleaning my shelves I recently scanned all these pages (with an industrial scanner) and now I have a few pfd files on my computer. Now I'd like to use a well working OCR to get the handwritten mega list into an Excel file . Any suggetions for OCR on handwriting? Thanks.

Hey there! Adobe acrobat is not the best tool for handwriting. You will have better options with a program called abbyy finereader. Here is a playlist of videos for that program: kzbin.info/aero/PL2GnpAhfNiFEHtTc0zQGlso08Wdk_SY66 You should know that it is not a free program, and there is a bit of a learning curve.

[@TheAccessibilityGuy]

[@TheAccessibilityGuy]

Sometimes it likes to hide! :)

I like the vid. If I click on "open" San & OCR it just says wait for it to install for it to be used. This promt doesnt go away however. Now I can not use it. Best regards :D

[@TheAccessibilityGuy]

Hmm. Are you ok Mac or PC? Also, do you have a file open when you click it?

[@SergeantHelm]

@@TheAccessibilityGuy i have a PC (Windows 10). I have the file open before i click on "open"

[@TheAccessibilityGuy]

@@SergeantHelm I'm honestly not sure. You can send me a screenshot or video [e-mail] and I can try to help troubleshoot further.

[@TheAccessibilityGuy]

Of course!

[@carbonarrow7]

So how do you scan a letter Doc and not have it crop smaller as a letter sized in pdf Letter page, but stay as a full letter page?????

[@TheAccessibilityGuy]

Umm what. Lol

[@carbonarrow7]

@@TheAccessibilityGuy Well is it apparent that your channel is a useless uninformed one. What a looser.

[@sumanrbrbehala]

can i chage any text?

[@TheAccessibilityGuy]

As long as the text is recognized using the OCR feature yes.

[@amahana6188]

The only issue I'm having is that is flipping one page sideways. The page has a chart, but so do some of the other pages....but for some reason, it only flips this one page sideways.

[@TheAccessibilityGuy]

You have to do every page one at a time

[@DaVixoxo]

Thank you!

[@TheAccessibilityGuy]

You're welcome!

No, in fact everything is not working. It failed to OCR the small image on the right. Also, I tried on images with background colors, and it failed to even see the text in them. It seems to only work if the background is only white. In other words: Useless

[@TheAccessibilityGuy]

Yeah - the OCR Is not great inside adobe

[@mahmoudm.s.dwaikat1482]

@@TheAccessibilityGuy The best solution for such problem is to use AI specific software that can decode the text from images whose background is a jungle of colors and shapes, can you suggest something like that?

This video is so ass I have never felt so disappointed

[@TheAccessibilityGuy]

I guess you can go make your own video then :) do it better!

[@12erivera]
