Software to Convert Scanned PDF to Editable Text

AI Thread Summary
To modify text in a scanned PDF that is in image format, Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software is necessary. OCR converts images of text into editable text formats. However, users may encounter issues with the quality of the conversion, such as unwanted characters or formatting problems, like dots appearing after each word. This can make the text difficult to edit. While converting a bitmap image back to a clean text format is challenging, using high-quality OCR tools can improve results.

i tried that also

Well, the date has now passed, and Windows 10 is no longer supported. Hopefully, the readers of this forum have done one of the many ways this issue can be handled. If not, do a YouTube search and a smorgasbord of solutions will be returned. What I want to mention is that I chose to use a debloated Windows from a debloater. There are many available options, e.g., Chris Titus Utilities (I used a product called Velotic, which also features AI to prevent your computer from overheating etc...
I've been having problems for the past few weeks with the display on my Dell computer. I bought the computer new back in 2019 or so, which makes it about 6 years old. My monitor is a 27" HP monitor that I bought for another computer (an HP Pavilion), recently demised, back in about 2012 or 2013.
