Note: If you are prompted to download the OCR component after clicking OK, please
click Yes to download and install it, or download it later from the link provided and
install it by clicking Install Plugin in the About Foxit Plug-Ins dialog box which pops up
when you click Foxit Plug-Ins in the Help tab. (Tip: For a plug-in in MSI format, double-
click it to install it.)
4. (Optional) If you check Find All Suspect (Show all OCR results that may need
to be changed.), the OCR Suspects dialog box pops up for you to check and
correct OCR suspects right after the recognition completes. To learn how to
correct OCR suspects, please refer to Find and Correct OCR Suspects.
If you choose Editable Text in the output type, with the Find All Suspect (Show
all OCR results that may need to be changed.) option selected, the OCRed text
that Foxit PDF Editor is not certain about will be marked as OCR suspects, and the
original image text will be kept until you manually handle all the OCR suspects.
You can also deselect this option to turn the image text into editable text with no
OCR suspects after recognition. And you can modify the text directly using the
commands in the Edit tab if needed (e.g., some text was not correctly recognized).
5. (Optional) If you select Editable Text in Step 3, the Recognize the line segments
as path objects in the PDF option is available. If the image text in your document
contains tables, selecting this option helps better recognize the line segments, but
it may take longer to complete recognition.
6. A recognition text process bar will pop up to show the progress.
7. Do the search function, the text on your image or scanned document will be
searchable.
Tip: Foxit PDF Editor provides the Quick Recognition command under Home/Convert tab
to recognize all pages of a scanned or image-based PDF with default or previous settings
by one-click.
To recognize text in multiple files:
1. Click Convert > Recognize Text > Multiple Files.
2. In the Recognize Text dialog box, click Add Files to add files, folders, or currently
opened files. Use Move up, Move down, and Remove to adjust the order of the
files.
3. Click Output Options. In the Output Options dialog box, select the destination
folder, choose how to name the new file and whether to overwrite an existing one,
and then click OK.
4. Click OK. After recognition, a message box will pop up to prompt you the
recognition is finished.
