    Hi lgs0902,

    Are you converting PDF files to another format, such as Word or Excel? When you convert PDFs, Adobe PDF Pack uses OCR (optical character recognition) by default to convert scanned text (when present) to searchable/editable text. Please see Using Adobe PDF Pack for more information. There's nothing that you need to do, other than to make sure that the correct language is selected for text recognition.

    Best,

    Sara
