Since 2017, this platform has still not supported Arabic, which feels dismissive of the 111.36 million native Arabic speakers. We hope this issue will be resolved by early 2025!

ocr arabic still not supported in 2025

what a shame that adobe support a lot of language and left Arabic behind, which is the 4th most spoken language in the world

IT'S GOOD, BUT I NEED MORE INFORMATION

Hi, did Adobe OCR start supporting the arabic language?

شكرا Anonymous والله خدمة هذا البوت من اروع ما يكون والدقة تتجاوز ال95 بالمائة رغم رداءة الصورة.. ثم الخدمة مجانية.. جزاك الله خير على النصيحة

this is stupid since 2017 no support for arabic language. i had to unsubscribe for this specific oversight. shameful

But when ?

ليست لانه لا يوجد مستعملين كثر للبهلوان انما هي نوع من الاحتقار المتعمد للغة اللتي بنو عليها فخرهم. الحل ان يكون احد هذا الملحق و يضعه لمستعملي البرنامج. انا لا احسن البرمجة لذا هذا نداء اما ان يكون برنامج كامل يغنينا عن التسول او ملحق حر للمستعمل .
و الشكر المسبق للمبرمج

I know of many universities (and work at one) in the Middle East that are using your service using the full professional version. Yet you still do not have Arabic OCR capacity. Also missing are Devanagari scripts (South Asian languages). This is a large oversight and I see communication regarding this problem going back many years so you must be aware. With the advance in AI technology and translation software you could help open up many texts to scholars with mid-level proficiency. Indeed, the AI capacity exists now to help with this process. For example, I notice with many OCR systems there is a problem distinguishing medial ف and غ and this is something with which an AI system could help. So, this is the perfect opportunity to fill this gap. I suggest you partner with large universities in the Middle East and South Asia that have existing good computer science PhD programs to work on this (some good dissertations on applying AI to OCR might result too!) unless you are already close to a solution. If you are close, I think an estimated time frame conveyed to this community would be appreciated. Thank you.

Adding the OCR for Arabic script won't just benefit digitizing Arabic language texts, but text from multiple other languages, including Persian. We are in 2023, and so many advances have happened to AI, it is so weird that you have not added Arabic OCR till now. Facebook and Tiktok have now added text to speech for Arabic, it supposedly was impossible, but they did it, and it makes life so much easier. Adobe do something!

Please add Arabic language it's global language spoken by roughly 200 million people

still nothing from 2017 you really should consider this adobe!

Any news please?

Where are we now? Is it available now?

still nothing from 2017 you really should consider this adobe!

Adobe Team, please let us know whether the OCR for Arabic content will be released any time soon. I have two large Acrobat sales deals in the Middle East and Nort Africa that have been placed on hold due to the fact that Acrobat cannot OCR Arabic content.
Common team, we're all missing opportunities!

2022

Arabic-specking population: 360,000,000

Adobe DC Arabic priority: 0

SOO IMPORTANT

We're in 2022 and still no support.
Shame on Adobe
