Request: Upgrade Acrobat OCR Engine to AI-based Model
The current OCR engine in Adobe Acrobat is outdated and often fails to recognize text accurately, especially with complex layouts or low-quality scans.
Please consider integrating a modern AI-based OCR engine, similar to Google Cloud Vision or ABBYY FineReader, to significantly improve recognition accuracy and multi-language support.The advancement of AI-based OCR is especially critical for users in non-English regions or those working with complex scripts. The current engine’s accuracy drops significantly for non-alphabetic languages, which directly impacts both operational efficiency and fairness.
Many users would greatly benefit from more robust, AI-powered text extraction.1 vote -

It triggers automatically all the time when I open PDFs, destroying the underlying images with no way to undo it!
There is no preference to disable this!
Insane!

CTRL-F / Advanced Find for pages WITHOUT Content
Good Afternoon Adobe Community,
Respectfully requesting the consideration of creating an Adobe PDF function that allows us to use CTRL-F or Advanced Search to find & mark all pages WITHOUT certain content.
This would be a great help for medical record verifications when trying to find all pages that DO NOT contain the patient’s SSN so it can be annotated.
A feature like this would make military operations as well as hospital operations much more efficient as it would not just be isolated to SSN's but case-numbers or serial numbers just as well. Something as simple as an exclude checkbox…1 vote -

Enhance Image Menu Covered by Toolbar
The menu to enhance an image loads in behind the toolbar. You can move the toolbar out of the way, but you shouldn't have to. Should be a simple fix.

AI assistant
AI assistant doesn't recognize loaded languages. I got a scanned pdf from China, the AI couldn't process the file. I had to upload to google translate to read the file.
Also, regular scan and ORC didn't work... but the freeware from google works.

Develop OCR support for Hindi & Marathi and other Indian languages.
I am a Adobe acrobat pro user. Hindi is the 3rd largest spoken language in the world. Marathi is 10-11th but still you keep ignoring billions of people's request for many years. There is no OCR support. You dont even recognise us. All we get is a cold responses from Adobe. Not fair. If you dont listen, you will fall off one day in this new world of AI. Tried to reach out to you on Twitter, forums everywhere for many years but no action. Tell us that you are listening and escalating it to the top people.

Cannot perform Simplified Chinese OCR
Whenever I try to perform OCR recognition on a scanned Simplified Chinese document, an error message will pop up: Acrobat could not perform Text Recognition on this page because: Unknown error (see uploaded screenshot). The scanning quality is very high. English documents scanned in the same way can be easily recognized through OCR. Meanwhile, simplified Chinese OCR works fine on Android App.
When performing Simplified Chinese OCR recognition on the Android app, the app prompts me to download the Simplified Chinese language pack. However, there is no such prompt on the desktop software. I'm not sure if the problem is…

scan and text recognition
The scanning feature and text recognition has become very faulty recently and can't even detect text on a document that has been converted from Word. This means that it is impossible to search certain words using ctrl+F and when trying to highlight a specific word or line it just highlights half of the page. Please could this issue be looked into as this function used to work fine.

text selection
Text selection is really really bad, on most documents (even on well structured digital documents). I cannot describe how frustrating it is to use in the day to day.
Best workaround is to screenshot documents and use the text recognition of the snipping tool (on windows), that while not always perfect, is miles ahead of the text selection on Adobe Acrobat.
Adobe cannot not know that issue at this point, after all those years developing and maintaining acrobat and still this bad in inconceivable. Hope to see an improvement on that part one day!

Bug: Deletion overrules download in scan-folder
When I've started a bulk download in Adobe Acrobat Scan-folder and choose the same files for deletion, but the binder.zip was not yet completed all files are gone.
They should be at least in the document cloud trash bin to restore them after deletion anyway.

AI text suggestions / text uniformity
The text recognition has not improved in decades, and the OCR has never been able to make the text represent in a way that is easy to work with, making dozens of microadjustments on a single line, so that editing a scanned doc becomes a useless idea. Maybe provide better suggestions about what the intent of the page was supposed to be resulting in smaller files? How hard can it be to turn an image of a table into a dataframe anyway????

ocr
Page orientation changes automatically on some pages when we perform OCR in Adobe 2023 in some cases. The page orientation of each page must be the same as the original file.
