PDF2XL OCR for Windows

User Reviews

• Has its limitations

  wuming12June 12, 2016

  Pros

  It did read over 90% of the characters in the .pdf file.

  Cons

  But even though it had the option to convert to WORD, when it converted to Open Office, it did so only as a spreadsheet file not a document/text file. When I converted to HTML, it became a table.

  Summary

  If you just need a spreadsheet or table format, and you don't own WORD, this might work for you. But for over $100 it's not for me.

• Worked perfectly

  slreynoldsNovember 24, 2008

  Pros

  Easy area selection: by each page or across document - the best OCR this kind of problem. Converted scans and the program walked me through corrections one cell at a time for the characters it found questionable (it found all of the errors)

  Cons

  a bit pricey for a one trick pony (but worth it if you have reams of data to convert).

• Beware, this product does not work!

  mcgyver2kNovember 15, 2008

  Pros

  Absolutely none

  Cons

  Spent 20 minutes downloading only to have it tell me to buy the product. Didn't even get to try it first.

  Summary

  I downloaded this "trial" software and installed it. As soon as I did that and tried to launch it it said that the trial version was over. I have never downloaded this product before and I'm the only one that's ever used this computer. Don't waste your time.
