OCR Problem Adobe Acrobat 7

Does anyone know this error?

Save the pages in Acrobat to the TIFF format, using a resolution of 300 dpi
and the color set to monochrome. Then use the "Create PDF from multiple
files" feature to put the TIFF images back into a single PDF to be OCR'd.

  • How do I convert .pdf into searchable OCR using Adobe Acrobat Capture 3.0?

    How do I convert .pdf into searchable OCR using Adobe Acrobat
    Capture 3.0?
    Our division is digitizing it's files, and we've been using
    Adobe Acrobat 5.0 (2). We've 'scanned-in' several hundred
    documents, but they have been saved as .pdf files (which are
    currently not 'searchable', as they are only scanned images).
    We just received the Adobe Acrobat Capture 3.0 program, and
    we were told that we would be able to scan-in any new documents and
    save them both as .pdf and OCR documents (Optical Character
    Recognition). Therefore, we were told, we would be able to search
    through the body of the document, using OCR, and not just through
    the document filename, as we had been doing before.
    HOWEVER, we don't know how to use this new OCRing program.
    Also, we don't know how to convert the .pdf documents which we've
    already scanned into OCR recognizable documents.
    Is someone able to assist us here in this forum?

  • Scanning problem - "Adobe Acrobat 9 has stopped working", Windows 7 OS

    Hi all,
    First post in the forum - Adobe has always come through for me before but I'm having problems that I can't solve by myself this time. When I try to scan documents into Adobe Acrobat 9 the scan completes (all the documents are drawn through) but when it attempts to progress to ask me whether there are any documents left to scan it crashes. There's no specific error message; Adobe just shuts itself down.
    I'm using Windows 7 and an IR2800 Canon printer-scanner combo to scan the documents. I downloaded the latest driver for the scanner earlier from Canon's website and am at a complete loss as to what the problem might be.
    I would very much appreciate any help rendered.
    Regards,
    Chris

    Sorry, I'm a doofus! Sorted it out, was a problem with the Network Scangear (I had an old version)

  • Why is OCR of Adobe Acrobat scanning facility not working well on numerical fugures?

    Hi
    Using the scanning facility of Adobe Acrobat, I have scanned a document containing a mixture of alphabetical and numerical characters.
    Curiously, after performing "Recognize text using OCR" opration on the scanned document, the alphabets have been recognized while most (not all) of the numerical figures haven't. Please suggest how I can ensure that all the numerical figures are recognized. Please not that they are all of the same format (font type, size etc).
    Thank you for your usual assistance.

    That error occurs when the serial number is incorrect.  Double check the serial number with the email or the DVD case that you got with the media.  If it's correct then you should probably contact Adobe Technical Support and not just the Chat.

  • Problem Adobe Acrobat/Reader when Clicking Link???

    For some reason when I'm on a web page that has a link to a PDF file, Safari opens a new window and I get a popup error.  See attached screen shot.
    Acrobat is not running.  I've tried quitting and re-starting Safari (5.1.7) and even restarting Mac OSX (Snow Leopard 10.6.8).
    Any ideas???

    Post in the Safari forum area and also on Adobe's forums if the users in the Safari forum area have no solutions.

  • I have just installed Adobe Acrobat Pro XI for Mac. I am not finding where to OCR a document.

    How do I OCR in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI for Mac?

    Hello Treacie,
    You might need to launch Acrobat and go to Tools> Text Recognition and choose 'In this File' option to run OCR within the document.

  • [bug locked] Is the OCR capability of Adobe Acrobat Version 9 more advanced?

    Hi
    The OCR of Adobe Acrobat Version 7 is not yielding satisfactory results, especially on numerical figures.
    Is the OCR capability of Adobe Acrobat Version 9 more advanced? If yes, can you suggest where I can read more about the extended OCR facilities provided?
    Thank you for your assistance in that matter.
    Ashvin

    It /could be/. What a strange way to ask a question. You could always grab
    the trial and see for yourself. If you install the trial; be sure to remove
    version 8 entirely first.
    Please note: I read this Forums through e-mail. If you respond to me; please
    quote, otherwise I have no idea whom your response is addressed to or the
    context. This is all thanks to how this forum doesn't work properly, yet.

  • Compatibility of IE9 with Adobe Acrobat 9 PDF printer

    Hello,
    I know from reading this document that the Adobe Acrobat PDFMaker is not supported in IE9:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/compatible-web-browsers-pdfmaker-applications.html
    Does this only apply to the PDFMaker utility located within the browser, or does it also apply to the Adobe PDF printer that is available as a choice if I try to print a webpage?
    I ask because every time I try to print a webpage to PDF using the Adobe PDF printer (NOT the PDFMaker) using the following sequence of steps:
    1. right clicking on the page
    2. clicking "Print...",
    3. selecting "Adobe PDF" from the list of printers
    4. choosing a location for the destination .pdf file
    4. click "Print"
    a window pops up with the title "Creating Adobe PDF", but the progress bar never fills up and the PDF file is never created.  There is a spinning Adobe logo and a printer icon in the system tray.  If I double click on the printer icon, I can see the document I sent to the Adobe PDF printer.  The status is "Spooling".  Occasionallly the PDF document will eventually be created, but usually it isn't.
    I have better luck in Chrome, but sometimes it too hangs, although the documents are eventually created.
    Here are my specs:
    Windows Vista Business 64-bit
    IE 9.0.8112.16421 (both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions experience the problem)
    Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended 9.5.5
    To summarize:
    Printing to PDF using the Adobe PDF printer and IE9 causes the "Creating Adobe PDF" step to hang forever.  I know IE9 is not compatible with PDFMaker, but what about the Adobe PDF printer?

    Hi,
    I believe I am having similar issues to yourself. I have been looking for solutions for a day or two now but can not find anything. Have you managed to find a resolution or work around?

  • Problems printing PDF's using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro

    During the last two weeks, I have been unable to print a PDF from my Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. They appear okay on the screen, but print as gibberish.
    After consulting the forums, one workaround suggested was to print as image. Tried it, also prints gibberish.
    Another suggestion to update my printer software, did it. Still prints as gibberish. My priner is an Epston Stylus Photo R220.
    I'm a writer, not a software technician. I am not using a bootleg copy of the program, but an educational version, so Adobe won't offer me any advice over the phone without payment.
    Anything else I could try before paying?

    [email address deleted by host]

    I have same problem as described above, but not always.  Seems to depend on the web page I am trying to print to Adobe. One consistent culprit is Bank of America.  Looks okay until I print to Adobe Acrobat 9 or 10. Then it's gibberish.  i had to copy to Word and then print Word to Acrobat or printer.  
    . Various computers,
    . same problem with either Acrobat 9 or 10.
    . Not a problem printing to Acrobat from a Word or Excel or Outlook document
    . Only from certain websites and not the entire page, only the OCR part. The objects: logos, pictures are okay, only text is messed up.
    Definitely would like Adobe to fix this.

  • "there is a problem with adobe acrobat/reader. if it is running please exit and try again. (523.523)

    We are getting the following error "there is a problem with adobe acrobat/reader. if it is running please exit and try again. (523.523)" and a gray screen appears (Image not viewable) with multiple users. We are using Adobe Reader XI (11.0.05) and (11.0.06). The current workaround is to log off the website and log back in. Once the user logs back in, the pdf will appear. However it occurs anywhere from 2-8 times in a day. Anyone else having this issue or know of another workaround? Any suggestion with how to fix? Please help!!

    Hi Valerie,
    Please let me know the version of Adobe Acrobat/Reader & operating system installed on your computer?
    Also, try this:-
    Launch Adobe Reader/Acrobat.
    From the menu, choose Edit -> preferences -> General
    Uncheck the option for "Enable Protected Mode at startup"
    Restart the Adobe Reader and web browser.

  • Adobe Acrobat  has encountered a problem and needs to close.

    Just recently when I launch Acrobat X after about 10 seconds I get this error, "Adobe Acrobat has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience."  I can create PDFs and open PDFs for 10 seconds.  I've done a repair of Acrobat,  I tried a new user account, and  I disbled all my start up items.  I still get the same error  I have no clue what to do.  Any suggestions?
    J.R.

    OK Will,  I pressed ctrl + Shift and double clicked on a desktop icon of a file.pdf I had saved there and it opened and is still open.  By not pressing ctrl + Shift the file opens then closes with that error in about10 seconds.
    So now, what has that proved to us is the issue?  Doesn't that load Acrobat without all the extensions?
    This issue just started a few days ago and all I remember installing on my computer were some Window's updates.

  • Error: adobe acrobat elements has encountered a problem and needs to close

    When I right-click to Convert to PDF or Convert to PDF and EMail for .xls, .xlsx, .doc, .docx, .pptx, .ppt, .pub, and .igx items (what I've tried so far), I get the following error: "Adobe acrobat elements has encountered a problem and needs to close".  It works fine on .bmp .tif, .txt, .htm, and .jpg (what I've tried so far).  I am not having problems printing to Adobe to convert, nor am I having problems creating a PDF within a program, and I'm not having problems converting from IE.  I am using Windows XP Professional, Microsoft 2007, and IE 7.  My Adobe product is Adobe Acrobat X Pro Version 10.1.2.  What can I do to resolve this problem?  Thanks.

    No, I don't have an older version.  I did a search on my C drive for anything that has a name of Acrobat Elements and came up with the following: (I'm hoping you can see this)

  • Adobe Acrobat 9.0 has encountered a problem and needs to close

    Hi!
    I'd like to start using Adobe Acrobat 9.0 with Acrobat.com, but I don't get very far before I get the error message "
    Adobe Acrobat 9.0 has encountered a problem and needs to close." This happens after I click "distribute form" and fill out the email addresses. It get to the point of starting to publish the response files and then the error message pops up and I can't go any further. I've made sure to uninstall older versions of Acrobat and I restarted my computer. I have a PC and am running Windows XP and IE 7. Help!

    Bill:
    Thanks for all the tips. Actually I already did most of this (multiple times) to no avail.
    ·         I’m running Win XP Pro SP3 on a Dell Latitude D630 laptop with 2GB memory.
    ·         I Bought Acrobat 7 Standard (it came bundled with my scanner) so I do have that CD and the key
    ·         I purchased the upgrade to Acrobat 9 Standard on-line for $99.
    ·         Actually, everything was working fine until I uninstalled ATM. (I did that because my laptop wouldn’t undock or hibernate and I read that ATM could be the cause.)
    ·         I’ve done several repairs from Control Panel. Didn’t help.
    ·         Finally, this morning I decided to uninstall everything and install a trial version of Adobe 9 PRO from their web site. That didn’t work either.
    ·         I notice that none of these actions has brought ATM back. On the other hand, I can’t find a place from where I can download ATM either.
    Here’s the really funny thing. Acrobat is not completely broken. I can actually get it to work for the first few seconds. And if I type real fast, I can even save the pdf file that it opens before it crashes! For example, if I click on a pdf file on a web page and it is small enough that it opens right away, I can click the save button and hit OK immediately (don’t mind where it saves the file, I can find and move it later) before I get the “Adobe Acrobat 9.0 has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience.” message. The same happens if I just open Acrobat and let it sit. It doesn’t crash immediately. It takes about 5 seconds before it does.
    This should give a clue as to where/why it is crashing.
    Tomorrow I’m going to try and get Adobe on a chat line and have them take a look.
    Let me know if you get any other good ideas. Thanks for taking the time to reply.
    Thanks,
    Jamshed Mulla
