Re: How do you edit scanned documents?

Hello, DigitalLarry The OCR engine tries to use the closest matching font when generating editable text, so the best solution would be to ensure you have the original fonts installed so that a substitute is not used. Beyond that, none of the settings we offer will have an impact on this, if you wish...

Re: How do you edit scanned documents?

Hello, DigitalLarry

The OCR function you found is the way to accomplish this within our Editor. Unlike Adobe, we do not run OCR automatically upon activating the edit tools, it is something which, as you are seeing, can change your files in some ways, due to the engine in use.
