Dear amar,

When ever accessibility features are enabled in Adobe there should be a feature 
to have OCR facility available particularly when it is an image file. This will 
eliminate the cumbersome task of using third party software for conversion of 
image file and files made with non-unicode /ttf fonts in languages like hindi 
into a text file. Some thing that apps like ID or Envision are doing in phone.

Rohit

I don't know if this problem is universal or not, but I find it
difficult to read Hindi PDF files. I can easily read the same text in
Word file.
