I want to extract Arabic text from a pdf. I have attempted many things with no success including exporting to word format, simple copy and paste, installing the apparent font (AXtGIHane), scanning/ocr, etc... Nothing has worked. I downloaded the trial version of Acrobat DC, and have attempted several things with it as well (installing fonts, exporting, editing, trying to use OCR), without success. I can see that it has many features/settings so I may be missing something. I notice that when I look for Arabic among the language list, it is not present. I would be happy to provide a the file I'm using, or a portion of it. Although I'm working with the Macintosh version, I also have Windows 10 available, if that would help.
Thanks for your help,
-Tony
Hi Tony, We are sorry to say that, but you can't extract Arabic text using Acrobat. We don't have Arabic support yet. I am raising a feature request for you.
Thanks.

I recently upgraded my subscription to acrobat pro to be able to edit a text written in Arabic. I couldn't do it. When I exported the text to Word I got two three phrases in Arabic and the rest was a page with strange characters.
Why don't you have a version in that language?
and why Arabic is not supported?

Kindly advise if there's any progress on this matter. I am using Acrobat Pro 9, is there any chance to install some Arabic text recognition plugin or so?

We are heading to 2021, and Adobe still does not support Arabic in OCR technology!
I expected this technology to be supported by a recent update.
I'm now unfortunately disappointed with Adobe.

Hello,
Arabic feature still not included in the list of text recognition. Can you add it. It's annoying not having it, when we copy and past arabic texts

It is absolutely absurd that Acrobat doesn't have Arabic OCR capabilities. How hard can this be?

Acrobat DC supports Arabic within many feature but not all. What you requested ie. copy Arabic text from a PDF on to MS. Word or any other application will not work in Acrobat DC, it used to work in Acrobat X and prior such as 9, 8.
Similarly, exporting the content of your Arabic PDF to RTF or Word, will not be so successful either, however you may try it, the result will be between 0 – 10% success rate depending on how the PDF was created and which application generated it.
We have requested Adobe to look at these issues, and have been promised well.

Clarification: What I've been posting to above individuals on their private inbox is the URL to Sakhr web page so they can go and purchase it. I cannot post the URL here as it is against forums policy. Please use Google to search for Sakhr OCR.

Marhaba Yasser,
Adobe have Arabic OCR under review for the past few months. We don't know how long it will take to see Arabic supported.
