PDF Converter with OCR for Android

I need to combine hardcopy reports from paper to docx. It takes just a few minutes to read paper statements into a scanner to get a PDF that is converted by the Enlosoft App into a useful Word doc that can be presented to our Administration committee. It is well worth the price for me. My thanks to the developers. This is a followup review after 18 months of use and a version upgrade to 4.0.0. I haven’t had great success with converting handwriting or tried editing within the converter but the docx & xlsx outputs from this converter are all that I need. p.s. at first it seemed unusual to have to drag a file from Finder into the Enlosoft Converter window instead of being able to click on the Converter File tab to drill down to the folder and select the file to be converted but now I wish some other apps allowed drag and drop. This is followup review after 2 years. I recently created a spreadsheet from a pdf containing 2 years of our Church's utility company bills using PDF Converter with OCR. It took longer to scan the bills than to edit the resulting .xlsx file in Google Numbers. I’ve also used it to scan bank statements over 2 years old for data that “Paperless” could not have retrieved. The lack of editing capabilities in this tool are irrelevant to me. Office tools such as Pages/Word and Excel/Numbers are far more familiar and superior to most multi-too PDF editors.

Ok so unless someone can show me how to make this app work like it use to. This app is now like any other converter and doesn’t let you create the tables and make adjustments before converting. If someone can help make it work like the older version then I’ll change my review. HELP!!!

I can now see why there is such mixed reviews. If you are converting clean text, this program is great! If you are converting handwriting or a poorly scanned PDF, you are going to get more gibberish than actual text. It did exactly what I needed it to do an converted my PDF into a word file and saved me many hours. Thanks!

After I opened the App after installation, it asked me for the pdf and I dragged my pdf to it. Then CRASH!!

My Epson Perfection V600 Photo scanner used to have a free, bundled program that served my OCR needs for taking unmodifiable pdf law form files and converting them to Word where I then modify them in my law practice. I spent hours recently trying to reinstall scanner drivers and utilities, and then researching the internet to restore this functionality lost along the way probably to OS “upgrades”. The quote below is from the software manufacturer who blames the upgrades but is willing to sell me software for about $119.99 to replace the functionality of what once was bundled/free. I then spent too much time at the Google Store looking at diametrically opposed reviews of several products before I took somewhat of a gamble on this product. To my relief this new software performed the functionality I need and is more user-friendly than my old free program at 1/6th of the price of the old software’s new “pro” version. "Thank you for contacting ABBYY USA technical support. I apologize for the issues you’re experiencing. Unfortunately, FineReader Sprint is a free bundled version of the software which is only available on the original installation CD that it came on. And FineReader 5.0 Sprint in particular, isn’t supported on El Capitan, so if you located the CD it would not work. If you’d like, you could purchase our standalone software for the Android, FineReader Pro for Android."
