Hey,
I have a problem with OCR.
I have Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard with ALL components installed.
I'd like to make an OCR of a document in russian cyrillic letters.
The problem is that i can't choose Russian as Primary OCR Language.
Is it possible to install Russian as Primary OCR Language?
How can i install and use russian as primary OCR Language?
Does anyone has an idea to solve this problem?
Regards,
Manuel Forrer
Try this:
Document > OCR Text Recognition > Recognize Text using OCR
Click the "Edit" button.
The Recognize Text - Settings dialog opens.
Access the drop down menu for the "Primary OCR Language".
Scroll down to Russian.
Click OK.
Click OK.
The OCR process starts.
Check the results.
The Acrobat releases in the USA typically install support for English, French, and German.
Consequently, a USA Acrobat release may not provide support for Russian "out-of-the-box".
I tried using "Russian" OCR, as described above, on a scanned PDF contain Russian text.

I then did a save as to text to view the OCR characters. Observed Latin vice Cyrillic characters.
However, with Cyrillic fonts installed on the computer it might work.
You may need to obtain and install a Russian regional language version of Acrobat.
Possible alternative: Check Abby FineReader. It has a release that will OCR Georgian, Russian, Cyrillic.
