Convert scan document to adobe acrobat

how do you covert a scanned document file to adobe acrobat

Hi Anthony
If you already have a scanned image, choose File > Create > PDF from File, and select the JPEG or other file you want to convert.
Choose View > Tools > Text Recognition.
Click the 'In This File' option in the Text Recognition panel that opens at the right.
Designate desired pages and click OK. Acrobat automatically applies OCR to the scanned document or image.
Use the OCR Suspects tool to search for and fix any misspellings.

  • How to scan legal size document with Adobe Acrobat 6.0?

    How do you scan legal (8.5 x 14.0) size documents with Adobe Acrobat 6.0.0 ? There is no option for that size paper in the scan menu. And I can't find the answer in either my help file or on-line with Adobe.com. Can anyone help me?

    I use a HP OfficeJet G85. I have no problem copying/printing legal (8.5 x 14) size documents with that all-in-one unit. So I assumed it should be able to send the image it collected to my Adobe Acrobat program instead of to the printer. Am I missing something? Or should I put the question to HP instead of Adobe?

  • Scanned documents in Adobe ExportPDF

    I want to export a scanned spreadsheet and make it editable. Is it possible?

    Hi, Stacy,
    Thanks for your reply.  What I need to know is the following: I tried to convert a pdf file that I received from email into a Word document and it worked ok, however I tried to convert another pdf file that had been scanned into pdf and the spreadsheet in the document came as a non-editable image and I could not work on it. I would like to know how to proceed in order to turn it editable in Word. Is it possible through the Adobe ExportPDF?
    Thanks again and kind regards,

  • While creating a PDF document usinf Adobe Acrobat Pro 9, it generates additional blank pages.

    While creating a PDF document using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro, it generates additional blank pages. How do I resolve this issue?

    I might make a wild guess that you are using WORD and have used hard page breaks. If that is the case, then likely what happens is when you print to PDF the document is being reflowed to match the printer and the forced page break may end up on the next page and be forcing a second page. Just a guess.

  • Rotate document in Adobe Acrobat Pro

    Hi All
    How do I custom rotate a document in Adobe Acrobat Pro? I see that there is the option to rotate by 90 or 180 degrees but how do I rotate by just 1 or 10 degrees?
    Thank you for your help!

    Not possible to arbitrarily rotate the entire page even through JavaScript.  You can rotate objects on the page but not the entire page. You will need to either use  another Adobe Tool that can rotate pages in varying degrees like Photoshop or a third party tool.

  • Extending a document in Adobe Acrobat if you have purchased and own LiveCycle Reader Extensions

    I work for an organization that has purchased adobe livcycle designer suite which includes Livecycle reader extensions. However we do not really have a need (besides perhaps per the EULA), nor the technical support to extend reader documents using the server based LiveCycle Reader extensions. We will definitly be collecting info from over 500 receipients so per the adobe acrobat license agreement:
    16.8.3 For any unique Extended Document, Customer may only (a) Deploy that Extended Document to an unlimited number of recipients, but Customer shall not extract data from more than five hundred (500) instances of such Extended Document (or any hardcopy representation of that Extended Document) that contains data from a recipient; or (b) Deploy an Extended Document to no more than five hundred (500) recipients without limits on the number of times Customer may extract data from a recipient from that Extended Document. Obtaining additional licenses to use Acrobat Standard, Acrobat Pro, or Adobe Acrobat Suite shall not increase
    the foregoing limits (that is, the foregoing limits are the aggregate total limits regardless of how many additional licenses to use Acrobat Standard, Acrobat Pro, or Adobe Acrobat Suite the Customer may have obtained). For the avoidance of doubt, if Customer purchases another Adobe product or service that allows Customer to send a greater number of PDF files or forms (e.g. Adobe FormsCentral or Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions), then the terms of that Adobe product or service shall supersede the terms of this Section 16.8.3
    Given the very last sentence, it sounds me like since my organization has provided me with a copy of LiveCycle Reader extensions I can extend the adobe document using adobe acrobat if I wish, and still be within the terms of the EULA, is this the correct interpretation? I would prefer not to actually use the LiveCycle reader extensions as once again we do not have the technical support, nor the need for this server based solutions.

    Hi Ben,
    Thank you for providing the detailed description of the problem.
    The contents of the password-protected PDF document are encrypted (so that nobody can read the contents until the correct password is entered).
    Acrobat DC mobile products (for iOS and Android) have the known limitation where changes cannot be saved to encrypted PDF documents.  Therefore, users are not able to make any changes (e.g. adding comments/annotations or filling out forms) to encrypted PDF documents.
    Sorry for the inconvenience.

  • I cannot print oversized, poster, document in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro (11.0.10). The "POSTER" button is gray'ed out.

    I cannot print oversized, poster, document in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro (11.0.10). The "POSTER" button is gray'ed out.

    Point 1: try turning on "Show large images" in your preferences. In Acrobat for Windows, it's under the Page Display preferences. I'm not sure about OS X.

  • I cannot print pdf documents from Adobe Acrobat

    When I open up a pdf document in Adobe Acrobat, I am unable to print it. If I try and use an HP Laserjet 1606 laser printer Acrobat crashes. When I use either an HP Office Jet 7000 wide format ink jetprinter or a Brother MFC 3360C multi function ink jet printer I either get an error message that says "This document cannot be printed" or Acrobat crashes.
    I can print using the Preview program.
    Any suggestions?

  • Convert scanned document into PDF

    I have PDF Pack and am trying to convert a scanned document to PDF and ultimately to MS Word.  How is this done?

    Hi georges,
    If the ultimate goal is a Word document, I would recommend against the additional step of converting to PDF first, if possible. What scanning  software are you working with? Does it save in a format that Word can open?
    If you don't have access to the scanning software, and saving to PDF is your only option, then you would use ExportPDF (part of Adobe PDF Pack) to convert the PDF file Word. (To convert the file to PDF, choose Create PDF on the menu bar when you're logged in to PDF Pack at https://cloud.acrobat.com.)
    Best,

  • How to add/delete/rename scanning presets in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro?

    I am setting up a new scanner in our company. We would like to scan with Adobe Acrobat (Document -> Scan to PDF). Now there are only 4 presets (like "Black & White Document", "Color Document" etc.). Of course we have our own scanning standards and often scan special formats like passports etc. So how can we add more, delete and change the names of current presets?
    Obviously it has to work somehow as Adobe won't be expecting all their customers to work with the four standard presets. But how can I do it? I was looking everywhere for it but cannot find it.
    Thanks for your help!
    Simon

    Hi Simon,
    In the current version of Acrobat, there is no provision for creating, deleting or changing names of current presets.
    However, you can configure the available presets to customize them according to your needs.
    For customization of presets, you can execute the following steps:
    1: Go to Document > Scan to PDF > Configure Presets.
    2: Select the preset you want to configure from Presets dropdown.
    3; Customize the settings as per your requirement.
    4: Save the preset.
    You can now use the saved preset to scan document with your preferred settings.

  • Keeping redline text "red" when Scanning file in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro?

    The document is a word document that has several "red" color text and "red" color strikethrough words to show that a particular word is being edited/deleted.  The problem/question I have is that the "red" color in the document, when scanned, does not come out "red?"  The color is dark blue/black?  However, if there are other colors in the word document, these colors come out OK?  Not sure why "only" red strikethroughs or text "colored" red in same document does not come out in "red?"  The following info is sent:  I am using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro; the reader is Adobe Reader X; and the print/scanner is HP OfficeJet Pro 8600.  Any answers/help is greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

    Dear user,
    You are getting such output because you have checked ON the setting 'Print to file' in one of your previous prints. For resolving this issue, kindly uncheck option 'Print to file' present in bottom left corner of print dialog and then click on 'Print' (See attached image for reference).
    Hope this will solve your problem.
    Thanks
