Text Recognition not working

Hi all,

When I try and get Adobe Acrobat Pro DC to scan a PDF so I can search for words, I get the following errors...

First

"Acrobat could not preform Text Recognition on this page because:

Unknown error"

Then immediately after I click ok, this pops up...

"Acrobat could not access the recognition service because:

Unable to locate the Paper Capture recognition service. Your installation may be corrupt.

This is probably due to either a low memory situation or an [sic] corrupt installation/ If the problem is not cleared up by shutting down other applications and/or rebooting, then please re-install Acrobat."

I've rebooted my computer (multiple times), made sure I have plenty of memory capacity, gone through the repair installation function multiple times, uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe multiple times, run Adobe Cleaner multiple times, and nothing fixes the issue.

I'm on the latest version (2019.012.20035) of Adobe Acrobat DC, have a Intel(R) Core TIM i7-6700HQ CPU @ 2.60GHz processor, have 8 GB of RAM. I am using Windows 10 Pro (1903 - the latest version, build 183623.239). Older versions of Adobe and Windows 10 didn't work either. I've been trying to fix this for about two months.

Hi @Huochemi

What happens when you try to run the text recognition.? Do you get any error messages? If yes, please share the screenshot of the same for a better understanding.

You may also try to remove the application using the Acrobat cleaner tool https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/Labs/cleaner.html , reboot the computer once and reinstall the application using the direct link https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-dc-downloads.html and see if that works.

Hi Amal, thanks. In fact I managed to get on a chat with Adobe and the solution was simple - not to reinstall but to repair Acrobat. It is now working. Typical of the usual FAQ Windows 11 does not seem to know where the repair function lurks and gives incorrect instructions. It is sitting in Settings/Apps/Installed Apps/Acrobat then you have to click the three dots and select modify which gives a repair option.

Kind regards

Hi,

I tried using the cleaner tool then reinstalling acrobat to no avail. Acrobat still cannot recognize text.

This is an important feature for me, what else can I do to restore it?

Thanks, Gordon
