AI-powered PDF Conversion & OCR: Boost Text Recognition and Extraction

Wed. 24 Jan. 202420953

Many PDF tools on the market claim to offer OCR and conversion features, but their accuracy in recognizing scanned documents and image-based PDFs is often unreliable. After conversion, layouts frequently become disordered, severely impacting work efficiency and data utilization. PDF Reader Pro has upgraded its PDF recognition and extraction technology, which largely improves the accuracy of OCR. Its enhanced AI OCR and AI PDF parsing technology are applied in the format conversion function, helping to accurately identify and restore various elements in the PDF, such as the positions of text and images, styles, sizes, titles, chapters, headers and footers, backgrounds, etc.

Accurate, Multilingual, Secure: PDF Reader Pro OCR at Its Best

With the advanced OCR technology of PDF Reader Pro, users can easily convert scanned copies and image-based PDFs into editable documents while ensuring the accurate restoration of text and layout.

 

 High recognition accuracy ensures precise reproduction of text and layout. PDF Reader Pro has updated the language recognition model of OCR, which improves the effects of converting handwriting to text. It can convert images and scanned documents into fully editable PDFs while maintaining font and layout. Moreover, PDF Reader Pro OCR uses image enhancement techniques and corrects unwanted image distortions to achieve OCR accuracy of low-quality pictures.

 

● Multilingual recognition meets the diverse demands of global businesses. PDF Reader Pro OCR currently supports 90+ languages on Windows, Mac, and more. The latest update has added more languages, which surpasses many OCR tools.

● Offline OCR achieves secure and efficient operation. PDF Reader Pro can run OCR offline to extract texts, which is more beneficial for businesses with higher security requirements, as no data is transferred to a third party.

 

AI-powered PDF Conversion to Upgrade Your Experience

With the AI-driven PDF conversion technology, PDF Reader Pro not only achieves high accuracy in text recognition but also intelligently analyzes the document layout, preserving the original format and structure. Whether it's Excel tables, PPT paragraphs, or more format conversions, even batch processing of large-scale documents, it makes the workflow more efficient and the files easier to edit and utilize.

 

● AI intelligent analysis ensures more accurate text conversion. PDF Reader Pro has integrated an AI intelligent recognition engine, which conducts an overall semantic analysis of the document structure before performing recognition. Previously, common document conversion recognition relied on isolated, mechanical recognition of each element, without understanding the overall structure or context. After integrating AI analysis, the semantics are more in line with the document theme and the language usage habits of different regions. The sentences are also more continuous with no abnormal breaks.

 

● Intelligent layout restores the original properties. In Word, it combines flowing and fixed layouts to overcome traditional limits, accurately reproducing multi-column and mixed-content pages for natural, editable results. For tables, it boosts recognition accuracy for merged cells, improves text-to-cell matching, and uses AI layout analysis to handle complex, borderless designs. In PPT, it restores paragraph alignment, spacing, and structured elements like tables, lists, and catalogs, ensuring completely retained original layout and full editability after conversion.

● Multiple file format conversion capabilities meet diverse needs. PDF Reader Pro supports converting PDFs into multiple formats, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PNG, HTML, JPG, GIF, TIFF, TGA, BMP, and JP2. It also supports outputting structured formats for data transformation, such as Markdown, CSV, and JSON, making it easy to organize data or import it into other tools. This versatility benefits students, content creators, and data professionals alike.

● PDF Reader Pro supports high-speed PDF batch conversion. It supports batch conversion of thousands of pages within seconds, with a 50% increase in processing speed, meeting the demands of large-scale documents.

 

How to Use OCR and Conversion in PDF Reader Pro

After understanding the advantages of the OCR and AI conversion functions of PDF Reader Pro, let's now take a look at the specific operation steps. They are also very intuitive and smooth, without the need for complicated options or learning.

 

For OCR:

Step 1: Upload scanned copies or image-based PDFs for batch OCR or one by one.

Step 2: Select the target language or automatic recognition.

Step 3: Select the target format (PDF or text) and start OCR.

Step 4: Save the automatically generated editable file.

 

For Conversion:

Step 1: Choose one or multiple files for conversion.

Step 2: Select the document format you need to convert into.

Step 3: Set the layout: keep the mixed layout or page layout. Mixed layout is suitable for file conversion that requires a large amount of text modification after converting. Page layout is fit for relatively complex documents that require the layout after conversion to be highly consistent with the original file layout.

 

Step 4: OCR and language settings can be initiated to ensure the conversion accuracy. If the original file does not contain a real-text layer, such as a scanned file or an image-based PDF, you will need to enable OCR to obtain editable text.

Step 5: Output the converted file.
