Dear Tarun, ABBYY is a deprecated tool and is no longer usable.
Microsoft Word offers several features, and PDF conversion is also a great supporting tool. To open a PDF document, do the following: Open a blank document, then use the Open File option. Select the PDF document, click OK on the convert confirmation dialogue, and wait for the content to load. Check for the results. If you face any issues, please come back and ask for help. From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Tarun Vashisth Sent: Thursday, July 24, 2025 12:50 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [AI] Seeking Help: Issue with MS Word files created through ABBYY FineReader Dear Access Indians, I hope this message finds you well. I’m reaching out to seek your guidance on a persistent issue I face as a visually impaired professional who relies on text-to-speech software and OCR tools for reading documents. I use ABBYY FineReader to convert PDF files into Word documents for reading. However, I’ve noticed that after conversion, some words contain subtle but problematic spacing between characters. For example, a word like “spend” may get rendered as “sp end”, where the space is not visually prominent but is detected by my screen reader, leading to mispronunciation and comprehension difficulties. This severely hampers my reading experience and understanding of the text. I wanted to ask if any of you have faced similar issues and how you deal with them. Do you use any specific techniques, software settings, or post-processing tools to correct or minimize this error? Your insights would be immensely helpful. Warm regards Dr. Tarun K.
