Hi kvisatyamurthy,

If your document is a scanned image then you’ll need to convert it to searchable text form (using Clearscan option) before editing.

Thanks,
Lori

I had to change my hard drive and I have an Adobe Acrobat PRO disc I bought but lost my Product number.
I am now running a 30 days trial. Anyway I can re-install the Pro one?
I guess I have the answer already - NO WAY I HAVE TO BUY A NEW ONE.
Is that correct?
Ingemar
