In this video tutorial, we learn how to use the recognized text panel in Acrobat 10 to make scanned text searchable in PDF files and correct recognition errors. OCR, or optical character recognition, is the process of recognizing type text and images. By accessing the recognized text function in Acrobat 10's tool area, we can easily convert an image-based document into a searchable PDF. If the recognized text panel is turned off, it can be revealed by clicking a button. Selecting the OCR option allows us to convert the document into searchable text.
