Adobe Suite Package Questions

Does the Adobe Suite package allow you to scan in documents - take a picture and then convert the document to OCR so that it can be edited? Does this package create web pages? Does this package allow scanning from the Android?

Adobe has MANY products in their Creative Suite. I assume you're asking about Acrobat, since you are on the Acrobat forum. The answer is Yes. Any version of Acrobat Standard or Professional can scan documents and run OCR on them.

Once a document is scanned, you can use File > Save As to make it a Word document, Text file, or even HTML (to create a web page). This isn't always an exact replica, because of the nature of converting a paper file to different formats, but it does a great job in most cases (depending on the quality and layout of the original).

Adobe's primary application for creating web pages is Dreamweaver (check it out on our products page).

Unfortunately, no you can't scan from the Android with an Adobe product. Adobe Reader is available for the Android, but the ability to scan is not there yet...
