Other options to convert PDF scanned text document?
I often receive PDF files where the document has been scanned as an image. I'm wasting time having to retype these. I found a way online to Google to do a conversion, but it is slow (the link below if you're curious). What are other options to convert this type of PDF to actual text?

It is in the PDF, not somewhere else. You can then save it as a text file (or DOC) and get the text. Apparently, you use the searchable image, but could also use ClearScan which replaces the image of the text with the text where he thinks that it is successful. The text is on a different layer in the PDF file.

I need to convert PDF into Word Document, so it can be edited. But grateful text options do not have the language I need. How can I convert the file in the desired direction of my language?
The Acrobat application provides no ability to language translation.
If you locate the language for the applications from the OS, MS Office, Acrobat, etc. to the desired language try again.
Alternative: transfer a copy of the content in a web site based in PTE (Bing or Google offers a free service).
Transfer the output in a word-processing program that is localized in the appropriate language.
Perform the cleaning.Be well...

Adobe Acrobat (not Reader) will save PDFs in word files. It will cost however.
If you type convert pdf in word in Google you will find a lot of small applications that will do this for you - some are free.

Pay Option to convert PDF to Excel Trial
Hello
Sorry, I didn't know where to ask this question. I'm looking to convert PDF files to Excel files. I have an option to use a paid option when I open a PDF file in my Adobe Acrobat. Is there a free trial of this service? I'm more than happy to buy the annual subscription, but I don't know if it will convert the files correctly? I tried another conversion and they ave does not work well, I'm just assuming that since I am trying to convert the files are made from Acrobat, this process can be better for the conversion.
Thanks JrFYI there is no such thing as 'Acrobat Reader'. It is Acrobat and the free player there.
I can't say with certainty that the mechanism of conversion in Acrobat format is 100% identical to the one offered as an online service, but I guess it is very very similar.
You can try Acrobat free for 30 days and see if it works for you.
