Whether you are doing an office type of business or not, you must be piled up with papers at least on occasion. After some time, the papers get dusty and data fades away so it’s better to turn all documents into digital format by scanning them. It’s definitely a better solution than to continue working with physical papers, but it also has some slight obstacles. Once you decide to edit your old reports, delete parts or add some new data, you will need to extract content from scanned documents. As scanned documents are usually saved in PDF format, that means you will need a PDF converter tool that converts PDF to Word, Excel and other fillable formats.

PDF Converter Elite 4 is an example of just the tool you need, because it has the latest OCR technology that is necessary to convert scanned PDFs.  Follow these easy steps and learn how to recover old dusty papers:

First download a free trial version of PDF Converter Elite 4 here: http://www.pdfconverter.com/downloads/

The trial version is available for 7 days. It has the same quality and features as the full version, except that you can convert no more than 3 pages per document.

After installation, run PDF Converter Elite, click the Open icon, and then choose the scanned PDF you want to turn into an editable format.

Click on the Edit menu on the toolbar, and then among the OCR Options choose Convert Using OCR to turn on the OCR engine.

Next, choose the type of conversion. For instance, if you want to convert a PDF to Word, click the Word icon on the toolbar, or click the Convert menu and then PDF to Word, as shown in the image below.

On the right side of the program, the conversion panel will pop up. First you need to select an area of the document you want to recover. You can select all, just a particular area, or specific pages. If you choose to convert all pages or an area of the page, the Convert button will be activated automatically, but if you choose a specific page range, you need to click Enter in order to activate the Convert button.


Before you click Convert, you can choose the conversion mode. There are three modes of conversion for the PDF to Word option: Standard, Frames and Text only. For other kinds of conversions there are different advanced options.
