Software to Convert Scanned PDF to Editable Text

AI Thread Summary
To modify text in a scanned PDF that is in image format, Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software is necessary. OCR converts images of text into editable text formats. However, users may encounter issues with the quality of the conversion, such as unwanted characters or formatting problems, like dots appearing after each word. This can make the text difficult to edit. While converting a bitmap image back to a clean text format is challenging, using high-quality OCR tools can improve results.

The only thing I've ever heard of similar to this is OCR when you scan an image to a text file. There may very well be something that converts a "picture" .pdf file back to a text format.

If it's I am the form of a bitmap/image, you can't convert it back directly.
 
thank you all
i tried that also
but all the text that has converted is having dots after each worr


looks irritating to see i can't modify that dot by deleating it

Thread 'Urgent: Physically repair - or bypass - power button on Asus laptop'
Asus Vivobook S14 flip. The power button is wrecked. Unable to turn it on AT ALL. We can get into how and why it got wrecked later, but suffice to say a kitchen knife was involved: These buttons do want to NOT come off, not like other lappies, where they can snap in and out. And they sure don't go back on. So, in the absence of a longer-term solution that might involve a replacement, is there any way I can activate the power button, like with a paperclip or wire or something? It looks...
