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.
Ashvin

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.

Hi, Your Flash files are all correct for IE. I'm sure they are also for FF, since Flash Player is working.
What you can try is something that has helped other users and maybe this will help you with IE. Try turning off the User Account Control and then Restart your computer and see if IE is working now.
Open User Accounts by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking User Accounts and Family Safety.
and then clicking User Accounts. Click Turn User Account Control on or off.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
Select the Use User Account Control (UAC) to help protect your computer check box to turn on UAC, or clear the check box to turn
off UAC, then click OK.
Let me know whenever you can, no hurry.
Thanks,

My Adobe Acrobat Pro is not working.

My Adobe Acrobat Pro was working; however, today, I can not get it to come up. When I tried to convert a PPT to a PDF, it says it is not registered. I looked for the App to reinstall in the AAM and it is no longer there. That is why I joined the cloud. Can you help?

Adobe Acrobat XI Pro not working (at all) following update

I have been have issues with my Adobe Acrobat XI Pro for a few weeks now. It stopped allowing me to view, create and print pdfs a few weeks ago. As I teach part time online at a university- I commonly use pdf's to provide information to my students. I also use pdf's to transfer data back and for from my work computer - for my full time job - to my home computer and back again. Not having this availability is really hindering my work.
My computer runs on Windows 7 with a 64 bit operating system. Up until a few weeks ago I had no problems. I'm thinking an update may have gone through that caused the issues.
In order to reload my full program I had to completely reformat one of my drives which I had remnants of an old adobe version on it- unfortunately, I did not realize that outlook was still pointing to this drive so I lost a lot of data in the long run- needless to say this adobe issue is has been more than just a nuisance to me.
Once the drive was clean- I was able to reload my software for Adobe XI Pro. It worked perfectly after I loaded it. At least I was able to breath a sigh of relief. The next day (yesterday) I was informed that some security updates were needed on the program- considering the age of my disks- It seemed plausible and I received the updates. This evening, as I was setting up my course for winter semester- I tried to open a pdf- and low and behold- I am back where I was- I can't do anything again. What is going on here? I need this program to work- yesterday! Actually I needed it weeks ago when I started realizing I had issues.
There has to be a fix out there for this problem- and I can't be the only one with this problem. I would appreciate any suggestions that anyone has!
Thank you!

Bill-
Thanks for the suggestion- but unfortunately this doesn't work- the reason being is that "Repair" is not option.
I took a snapshot and attached it of what is available for me when I click on Adobe and as you can see- Repair is not an option.
I'm getting to the point of frustration- I will probably uninstall adobe again and refuse to get any updates for it. I honestly do not know what else to do.
Without adobe I can't post assignments for my college students to my website. Winter term starts tomorrow and I am very much behind schedule because of this problem.
I can't be the only person having this issue.
Again- I do appreciate the suggestion. Wish it would have worked.

Adobe Acrobat X Pro Not Working, InDesign is Finicky

I purchased CS6 a little while ago and now Adobe Acrobat X Pro is not working at all. This is a major problem because I cannot access PDF files, which is the file type I use most. Also, InDesign doesn't save my files correctly and sometimes just shuts down without notice. I use those two programs the most so I'm not too sure what problems the other programs potentially have. This same problem happened to my co-worker and she was emailed new download codes and now CS6 works perfectly for her.

Latest Alert for Adobe Acrobat - Upgrade will not work, Any ideas???

Hi, When the issue with Acrobat first occured (ERROR MESSAGE: Licensing for this product has stopped working. You cannot use this product at this time. You must repair this problem by uninstalling and reinstalling this product or contact your IT Administrator or Adobe Customer Support), I did unistall and reinstall my Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended, once finished reinstalling, the error kept reappearing. I also jumped onto the Adobe website and download the latest upgrade to fix this problem (http://www.adobe.com/ap/support/security/bulletins/apsb09-04.html), but the problem keeps continuing.
Any thoughts or ideas will be much appreciated. I have tried every combination of tricks and reinstalls etc and cant get it too work at all.

Hi Micahel, thanks for getting back to me, just quickly (im not the very best with computers, but am ok), when you say to check the background processes, is that starting the task manager (ctrl+alt+delete) and clicking the processes tab to see if its running there? sorry, im just not too sure where to check for this.
thanks heaps, i appreciate the assistance.
Kind Regards

Adobe Acrobat 9 standard not working anymore

I purchased Acrobat 9 standard online. Installed on both laptop and desktop machines. Laptop version still functions fine, but desktop version no longer works. Error 1311 source file not found - setup files. I tried the "repair" to no avail. How do I fix this? Adobe says they have no support for this. They sent me to this forum.

Hi nywireguy1,
I'm sorry that you're having trouble with Acrobat 9. Does the error occur when you try to reinstall Acrobat? If so, this document may help: Error 1311, 1335, or 2350 "Source file not found...data1.cab" |Install Adobe products | Windows

Why is it that Adobe CS2 software will not work with Mac OS Mountain Lion? What do I do?

Why is it that I must pay more money to upgrade my Adobe software so that it will work with Apple Mac OS Mountain Lion. Is it that Adobe wants to wring every cent out of me in order for me to use there products? Or should I just delete the Adobe software from my system and forget about Adobe and find something else?

Waynjer61 please see the system requirements for Creative Suite 2 listed at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1195856.
The largest issue which is preventing you from utilizing Creative Suite 2 on your current computer is the switch which was made from PowerPC processors to Intel processors. This coupled with Apple dropping Rosetta support, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosetta_(software), which previously allowed Intel processors to utilize applications coded for PowerPC processors is the main cause of Creative Suite 2 no longer functioning under newer operating systems.

Adobe Acrobat XI will not open

The recent install of Adobe Acrobat XI has not worked to date. I get a fail to open error when launched that says there is a missing .dll!
I will return with the dll but in the meantime I hope someone will help me. I have uninstalled my old Acrobat 7 Pro, Photoshop 7, Flash CS4, and InDesign CS2 so there would be no clutter. Now I have digital signage customers on hold and nobody from Adobe can be reached!

My Win 7 Ultimate OS tries to install it from the shortcut that was entered from the download and automatic install by AAM. Below is what I get.
I believe it was corrupted in the download and further corrupted by the first update that same day.
Thank You David for your help

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?
Merci beaucoup / Shokran jazilan / Thank you very much!

Why don't the Adobe Acrobat 10.1.6 and Adobe Reader 9.5.4 patches update the version on the exe file

Why don't the Adobe Acrobat 10.1.6 and Adobe Reader 9.5.4 patches update the version on the exe file ? My vulnerability reports show these installations are not patched when they really are.

Hi All,
I also facing the same issue with Adobe reader 9.5.4 version update.
Previous Version installed: 9.5.3
AcroRd32.exe - File Version 9.5.3.305
AcroRd32.dll - File version 9.5.3.305
After update installation to 9.5.4, add or remove program shows latest version but exe and dll is not updated. Vulnerability assessment tools based on file version check identifies patch is still missing. Becomes a HEAD ACHE.
Adobe Reader 9 > Help > About Adobe Reader 9 - First shows version 9.5.4, if your click on it instead of showing AGM version next it shows version 9.5.3.305.
I tested for all previous versions of 9x, works fine in each update. Seems like patch is missing codes for updating file versions.
Waiting for an acknowledgement.
