Several of the 42 OCR enabled languages have smaller user communities than the Arabic users. I really believe there must be an intentional decision from Acrobat's management not to enable the Arabic OCR. This matter has been ongoing since 2017 (refer to the first comment in the below series) and we still receive the same cliche reply '...we will update once the team prioritize it...). I wonder what was was the basis of the 'team's' decision to prioritize and implement the Hebrew OCR which users are manifolds smaller than Arabic (based on 9 million Hebrew speakers in the world versus 420 million Arabic speakers) and left the Arabic OCR hanging and 'under review' to this date...
Once and for all Acrobat should come out in the open and finally say it that they do not care to listen or serve the Arabic users.

Please update urgent as it's required in my children studies

Arab users all over the world need Arabic OCR support in adobe products.

It will be very useful feature and we needed it so much.

Please support Arabic language

there are 250mil. Arabic users in the world and around 25mil. Hebrew users. Why can Hebrew text be OCRed on Adbobe and not Arabic. Both languages use non western alphabet letters!

لغتي العربية
This is a must !

ما أَجمَلَ لُغَتي العَربيَّةْ
تَزهُو بحُروفٍ سِحريَّةْ
تَزهُو بحروفٍ مِن نُورٍ
في شَفَتي مِثلَ الأُغنيَّةْ

♦♦♦

لُغَتي مِن قَلبيْ أَهْوَاها
لُغتي يا لغةَ الأَجدادْ
فيكِ كنوزٌ ما أَبهاها
تتحقَّقُ فِيكِ الأَمجادْ

♦♦♦

نبعُ العِلمِ ونبعُ الأَدبِ
وتُراثٌ زاهٍ كالذَّهبِ
يا لغةً تَسمُو بالنَّسبِ
ما أَجملكِ.. لُغَةَ العرَبِ

♦♦♦

فيكِ زهورٌ، فيكِ عُطورْ
فيكِ تجلَّى قَلَميْ نُورْ
فيكِ أُردِّدُ شِعري فَرِحاً
أَملَؤُهُ نغَماً وَسُرورْ

♦♦♦

لُغَتي يا لغةَ القرآنْ
ولِسانَ حَبيبيْ العَدنانْ
تَحفَظُكِ عَينُ الرَّحمنْ
خالدةً عبرَ الأَزمانْ

♦♦♦

هيَّا هيَّا يا أَولادْ
نُعْلِيْ نَرفَعُ لغةَ الضَّادْ
نَفْدِيها، نُحْيِيْ نَهضتَها
ونحقِّقُ فِيها الأَمجادْ

Come on Adobe, what are you hiding?
How long will it be before you give us some feedback?
Or is the truth that there really is no development on this issue?
Quick reminder - the thread is over a year old and none of us are getting younger!
