Arabic OCR

[Alhamshary]

WHY there is no Arabic OCR.

I have a lot of difficulties to manage scaned documents with arabic content.

Arabic OCR will be very helpful

We have all been requesting Adobe to add Arabic to the supported languages in Acrobat's OCR.

Luckily, Adobe is now considering to add Arabic to the list but we aren't certain how long should we wait to see OCR supports Arabic.

Check this voting page, and also notice that Adobe recently say this feature is under review.

Dear Ibrahim,

Indeed, Arab users need to use an alternative solutions for the time being till Adobe add Arabic support to the existing OCR feature. I for one uses an OCR solution from Sakhr, it works well for me.
