Since upgrading to Acrobat DC I can no longer copy and paste text from pdf documents. Instead I get squares instead of characters. Anybody else experiencing this?
Obviously it wasn't answered or he/she wouldn't be asking again. Why are people so rude to people who have legitimate questions? Please before anyone replies to anyone, make sure you are putting yourself in their shoes and know how frustrating it is to get help that actually works in their situation. I think some people who know so much forget they too were once in a place that they didn't know it all and had to ask questions. Hopefully someone was kind enough to really listen to the your questions and helped you without assumptions. If you read all of ep2014 posts you can realize the problem they have and that they really haven't been given the help that is needed.
All I see is you talking about this text recognition command, you didn't give any instructions on how the person needs to implement it & to be clear, he doesn't have Adobe Acrobat, he's simply scanning docs in a scanner. He has almost no technical skills at all.
I've searched 3 times for the kws "text recognition" & I don't see any instructions.
Why not? Obviously ep2014 uses Acrobat. Why shouldn't he/she ask a question in this forum. I think try67 is awfully rude and not helpful. People come here not to be given opinions but to given help. If you can't offer any constructive help than don't reply. if you give constructive help you don't need to add your 2 cents worth of an opinion. Everyone has every right to post their questions here.
I also don't know why there is only allowed "Helpful" or "Like" that we can click on for a quick click to what we think of an answer. It would help to also have "Not Helpful" and "Dislike" that we can click on.
Because this forum is not about Acrobat. It's about Reader. And I never told anyone not to ask a question, only to select the correct place for it.
You'll also notice I've answered many of the questions posted above. When a question was asked about something that is very easily found online I provided a link to the official tutorial that explains it. I don't see how that is rude.
Well, to do it with Adobe software you need to buy or subscribe to Acrobat. SOME scanners come with softwate that can do this, but you can’t assume so. In other software this might be called “OCR” or “optical character recognition”. Check the documentation for the scanning software If you don’t want to buy Acrobat.
