I have a scanned pdf document that I need to change?
I have acrobat pro XI, I read other discussions on the use of OCR or clear scan but I do not understand how to do it step by step. Can someone explain please once all the steps on how to edit, remove some text in a scanned pdf document? Thank you.
Not really something wrong, it's just one of the problems trying to edit in Acrobat. You can find maybe better record as a DOCX or other text file format, change here and recreate the PDF file. In this case, I would save the original file (DOCX or such) also for future use.

I have several hundred investigations that I need to combine them into a single document. Can I use this software to scan, make a pdf file, then convert the pdf into a word file that I can copy parts of it and paste it into another document?
Hi mommajayne,
You will need Acrobat Pro DC to scan documents to PDF format.
You can also combine and edit PDFS in Acrobat.

Open a pdf document that has attachments inside on a mobile

No idea why?
Hi Willy,.
We have received your PDF document by e-mail. Thank you!
We have reviewed your PDF document and discovered that two HTML files are fixed as annotations of the type "FileAttachment '.
Here are two ways to attach files to a PDF with Acrobat Pro (for example).
Method A: attach files and embedded files
- Open a PDF document.
- Open attachments navigation pane.
- Click the Options button.
- Select Add an attachment on the menu that appears.
B method: attach files in the form of annotations
Acrobat Reader (for iOS, Android, and Windows Phone) mobile application support embedded attached files (added using the method) but doesn't support file attachment annotations (added using method B). We apologize for the inconvenience.
If you have the desktop version of Acrobat Pro, you can perform the following steps to re - join the files using A method to avoid the problem of compatibility with mobile applications of Acrobat Reader.
- Open your PDF document with attachments in Acrobat Pro.
- Open attachments navigation pane.
- Select a file displayed in the attachments navigation pane.
- Click the Options button.
- Select Save the attachment to save the file on your desktop.
- Click the Options button.
- Select delete attachment.
- Click the Yes button to confirm the deletion.
- Click the Options button.
- Select Add an attachment to re - attach the saved to a PDF file. (Alternatively, you can drag and drop a file on the navigation of attachment pane.)
- Repeat steps 3 through 10 for each file.
- Save the PDF document.
In this way, the portable versions of Acrobat Reader can open attachments.
If you do not have the desktop version of Acrobat Pro, you can try the free trial version of 30 days to see if it meets your needs.

Every time I try to open a pdf document that is located on a server or in our company (so not on my laptop), reador always shows error. Cannot open the document. Just in case I have copy the document into my local PV, I can read without problem. Server is mapped in my FileExplorer (Win7). So boring and big bug I think.
Massage of error: "there was an error opening this document. The network path was not found.
Could you please try to disable Protected Mode under ' Edit > preferences > (protection) "and see if that helps.
Let me know.
Kind regards

SOS! Comment by modifier content of a native or scanned PDF document?
Hello
I don't know about ADOBE!
A few days ago, I bought a PACK ADOBE € 77...
I thought with PACK can modify the content the native or scanned PDF documents.
How do I?
Thank you for your attention
Adobe PDF package can convert PDFs to Word, Excel, etc. and vice versa. It can also perform the recognition of characters (OCR) when exporting a scanned document.
However, he cannot edit PDF files. you will need Acrobat for that.

How to activate the search function. I get no match found when I search for words on the scanned PDF document
A scanned document is just an image; even if it contains text, it is not searchable.
Put text in a scanned image available, you will need to perform the recognition of text (OCR), which can be made with Acrobat, but not the free player.

Is it possible to get the object of doc JS of a PDF document that is opened in a web browser?
As I mentioned in a previous post on the Scripting Forum (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/427791), methods that previously worked in Acrobat 8 to get the object of doc JS of a PDF document that is opened in a web browser - for example App.activeDocs . using the JS object and AcroApp.GetAVDoc (index). GetPDDoc using OLE automation - no longer works in Acrobat 9. Therefore, in Acrobat 9, it is impossible to access a PDF file that is opened in a browser or in its annotations (except, of course, the PDF is downloaded to the computer and open through the NTFS, which kind of defeated the purpose).
What is someone is aware can explain how to get the object of doc JS of a PDF document that is opened in a web browser?If the plugin exposes a DDE interface - of course. But this assumes that he is there--it is not automatic. You will need to write your own plugin or get an update if necessary.
And thanks for the info: I'm passing along!
