OCR @ background for several PDF files
Dear friends,
I have several PDF files image / tiff files. a PDF file can have multiple pages. I wanted to do OCR of each PDF file. Manually, I need to do it one by one.
I wanted to perform this task in the background might be a tool that can be run to do OCR for all files and save result files in the specific folder. This groundwork will be executed on a daily basis.
Can this be possible with Adobe OCR tool? OR offer another solution using Adobe OCR.
Have we not all libraries that can be integrated with .net application? so that we can build the tool that can be run in the background.
Thank you
Louis
Yes, you can run OCR on a set of files and save them in the folder with the specified names. To do this, follow these steps:
If no file is opened in Acrobat:
1. start Acrobat and go to tools > improve the Scans
2. There is a link «or recognize text in multiple files»
3. on the "recognize text" dialog box, click Add files option and select all the files, you want to perform OCR.
4. click on Ok. Now a dialog box will come where you can specify the output settings (folder path and file name prefix/suffix)
5. the "Recognize text - settings' window specify the language and style of OCR output. (Default value is searchable exact Image).
If a file is opened in Acrobat, step 2 will change: toolbar in Acrobat select text recognition > in multiple files
Hope it will solve your problem. Please let us know if something else is needed.
Thank you.

You are prompted, for the default program when you try to print several pdf files.
I'm on server 2008R2, and whenever I try to pick more than one PDF file, then print, it will prompt you to choose me what program I want to open PDF with.
It does not allow me to print several pdf files no matter where the files are stored (office etc., network). I'm prompted with the message "choose program...". "every time.

Convert several Word Documents into several PDF files
Hi, I'm looking for a way to convert several PDF files in word documents. I am running Adobe Acrobat 3D Version 8.1.2. It seems as if will Advanced > Document processing > batch processing and then using the Print sequence All will do, but when I selected word documents I want to turn into PDF files, after I click on "Execute sequence" I get a message in the progress window saying «Start the application in which the file was created...» "then Acrobat stops and nothing happens. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening?
Thank you!
Hi "jhaystead"
Apologies to make an erroneous suggestion. "Batch conversion" is a feature of Acrobat 9 or higher.
I would suggest that you use the "Open All" sequence > double-click the Edit > "2. ' Run the command: "choose"Selected folder"and BROWSE to your folder of entry. The same for the '3. Select output location", you can choose"Same folder as Original (s)", click OK, and then click 'run the sequence '.
That invoke the PDFMaker to convert Word to PDF documents and save the PDF (s) in the documents mentioned, instead of printing output and inviting them to record the result every time as Adobe PDF Printer.
Plus, could you please check if menu/toolbar Adobe PDF options are there in Word and works well?
When you said,
' Is the only way I can get a PDF file produced to manually open each word document, and then save it in the format PDF.» I did have luck with the multiple PDF creation. " Print you documents Word, Adobe PDF or printer using the PDFMaker options?
Thank you!

Insert the text field into several pdf files
I was wondering if there was a way to insert a text field into several pdf files. I have about 500 pdf documents that need to have a text field in the same location on page 1 of the document. Is there a way to create a batch for this? Can I create a blank PDF with the text field in the right place and superimpose somehow in the exsisting files? Or I'm stuck with opening each file and paste the text of field in there?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.
Yes, it is possible to do, if you have the version of Acrobat Pro and some knowledge of JavaScript.

Cannot get data author and the title for the pdf files display in the Explorer of Windows 7
How can I get Windows 7 explore to display the author information and the title for the pdf files? I can get columns to display for the author and the title of information, but they are empty and when I click it, I get the message "not specified." I use Acrobat to create and read pdf files. Pdf files, I create include the author and title information in the metadata, so I know the information are here. When I used Windows XP, I could hover over a pdf file and metadata would leap upward with the author and title, but Windows 7 does not display no information in the pop up more than Tpye/size/update even if the metadata author data and the title has been entered.
nothing to see here...

How can you have several pdf files open on an android phone?
There was a time that each pdf file had its own recent app tab for each pdf file open on an android phone. Now for some reason, these "geniuses" thought it was a good idea to open a single PDF both. To open a file pdf will replace could have all previously opened pdf files. So, what adobe so smart and clever...
Although the place where you left off in a previous PDF will be saved is still not a good idea. I hope that this (not a smart function) PROBLEM will be fixed soon. I can't get on how dumb, they were. My god.

Mr President
I have windows 7, after creation of the solid color red & gray icon PDF files, but now the icon has changed to adobe acrobat 7 Professional logo, how do I re obtain the icon or the old logo for my PDF files as the previous icon is very easy to identify, also I used acrobat adobe 7 Professional but this problem was not there.
Hi manojp35249311,
Acrobat 7 is not compatible with Windows 7, so it's difficult to judge how the application on an incompatible environment will behave.
Please attach a screenshot so that we can diagnose the problem correctly.
