OCR in Acrobat DC

[djltexas92]

Hello!

Is it possible to OCR a pdf file in Acrobat DC? Do I need to install any add-ons for that purpose?

I would very much appreciate some insights about that subject.

Thanks

I found it! It's in the "Enhance Scans" tool!

I don't need anyone to answer my question after all...

Acrobat Pro DC has a built-in OCR feature.  With a PDF file open, you can click on the Enhance Scans tools panel on the right, and then click on the Recognize Text button that is in the Enhance Scans tool set at the top.  There is no need to install anything extra.

I hope this is helpful.

My best,

Dave

Not true. As of 06/24/20 one cannot OCR files online. This is a joke.

...and a cruel one at that. Please address this issue when you can. Thanks

Adobe Acrobat is not a online tool. What does you use?
