PDF documents that were created in other applications
Searchable PDF documents can be created from documents in various editable formats (such as
DOCX). Documents of this type contain a text layer and pictures, but do not contain page images.
These documents are searchable and their text and pictures can be copied and edited, provided that
such actions do not require entering a password or that the user knows the password.
PDF documents if this type can be created by:
1. Opening an editable document in the program where it was created and saving it in PDF.
2. Converting another type of PDF document or a document in another format into this type of PDF
using ABBYY FineReader (in the PDF format settings, enable the Text and pictures only option
in the Searchable PDF settings group of options). See also: PDF settings .
The resulting document will be easier to edit than other types of PDF documents but may be visually
different from the original.
