ABBYY® FineReader PDF User’s Guide
o Scan and convert PDF and paper documents into editable and searchable formats
(including Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, searchable PDF, PDF/A, PDF/UA, and many
more) to further edit, reuse, or store them.
o Convert paper documents, document images, and PDFs quickly and accurately - while
retaining their original layout, formatting, and structure - with the advanced OCR Editor.
o Improve quality and correct distortions in the digital images of documents
(scans/photographs) before converting them, either automatically or manually.
o Quickly check how recognized text matches up with the original document and make any
necessary changes with a built-in text editor and verification tools before saving.
o Improve the accuracy of converting documents with advanced tools: adjust or specify
document areas, train the program to recognize unusual or decorative fonts, and create
user dictionaries and languages for specific terminology, abbreviations, codes, etc.
·
Compare texts to identify differences between two versions of the same document*
o ABBYY FineReader PDF can compare two versions of the same document even if they are
in two different formats. For example, you can compare a scanned document and the same
document in Microsoft Word (in either DOC and DOCX formats).
o Save and share the differences as a simple list of changes, as an entire Microsoft Word
document in Track Changes mode, or as an entire PDF with highlighted text mark-ups and
comments.
·
Automate your personal document conversion routines with ABBYY Hot Folder *
o ABBYY Hot Folder is a conversion scheduling tool included with ABBYY FineReader PDF
that watches for documents in user-defined folders and converts them on a schedule with
pre-set parameters.
·
Take a snapshot of any part of the screen with ABBYY Screenshot Reader
o If a screenshot contains text or tables, it can also be extracted and saved as an editable
format.**
