Copy text from a scan in a scanned form
Many forms are just drawn boxes, not fillable fields. Type into their empty cells in the form's own font, sign, and send it back without printing. Make the words on a scan selectable so you can copy them into an email or document.
How to do it
- 1.Open OCR PDF.
- 2.Add the scanned PDF.
- 3.Download it and copy the text in any PDF reader.
What people change in a form
- • Empty boxes and table cells
- • Placeholder text
- • Dates
- • Signature
Questions people ask
+How accurate is it?
It depends on the scan. Straight, sharp, well lit pages at 300 dpi read best.
+Do I need to convert the scan to Word first?
No. MythosPDF edits the scanned page itself. There is no conversion, so the page keeps its look.
