Trying to use in the Scan & OCR Recognize Text In this file there are a number of missing languages that we used to have, like Traditional Chinese. 
How do we get access to other languages for the Language dropdown list?

Hi @David_Leon 

 

Hope you are doing well and thanks for reaching out.

 

You can find the option to OCR in Chinese under the Edit PDF tool at the right.

Open PDF in the Acrobat application and click on Edit PDF at right.

Then under 'Scanned Documents' click on "Settings".

In Scanned document editing settings, select the required language from the drop-down of "Recognize Text in".

Then click OK to save settings.

Check if this helps.

 

Let us know if you experience any issues.

Hello

I found that but the issue is that only have Simplified Chinese.  I need Traditional Chinese.  In future there might be other languages will need that is not in the drop down.  How do I get TC added?

Hi there

 

We are sorry for the confusion, If you are still using the old Acrobat experience, the option is still there.

 

Under the Edit PDF tool at the right.

Open PDF in the Acrobat application and click on Edit PDF at right.

Then under 'Scanned Documents' click on "Settings".

In Scanned document editing settings, select the required language from the drop-down of "Recognize Text in".

Then click OK to save settings.

 

 

Regards

Amal
