select all / copy after OCRing a PDF

Post by phattio »

hello!

is there a way to 'select all' after i OCR a PDF so that i can copy the text? the problem is: after i OCR a document, i choose 'edit content' and the content is in many separate 'objects'. i would have to manually pick each object, copy/paste into a wordpad, repeat, repeat, repeat...

thanks!

Hello,

When the "Select Text" icon is active in the Home-ribbon, you only have to press CTRL + A to select all the text, and then right-mouse-click followed by "Copy", to copy all the text to the Windows clipboard.

Kind regards.
