Hi Gary (if I may), I am trying to scan a PDF of a book page proof, but Adobe isn't recognizing anything. Can you help?

Hello, @defaultskvro5d38xrm, I moved your question to a new, separate discussion because I'm gathering there is something you need that I've not said yet in the original message. 

 

So, let's backup and please tell me what you are doing to OCR a page from this book. It's important to be as specific as possible: How are you scanning the document, and how are you saving the document? What kind of scanner are you using? What is your OS  and what version? What version of the scanner's software is on the computer? What version of Acrobat are you using? 

 

Simply put, the more detail you provide now, the more I have to work with you to help you. Think of it this way: you call a mechanic and tell him your car will not start. That's not much for anyone to go on to solve your issue.
