this address should send you straight to where you can download the paper capture plug-in for use with Acrobat 5.0 / 5.05
This is a fairly big file. Maybe 14 megs or so. Installation is a snap. If you are processing a large number of PDF files using the Paper Capture Plug-in, you might consider AutoCapture-X or AutoCapture-X-Pro - which automates the Paper Capture Plug-in. You can find them at

The OCR capability built into Acrobat 6.0 (paper capture) is very good. (The same process is also available in Acrobat 5.0 but you need to install the paper capture plug-in which is a free download from Adobe) You could export the text produced by the OCR process and edit that in Word and re-create a PDF from Word.

Hi all,
I am looking for an editor similar to WORD that would enable me to edit a pdf text file as if its a word document.
Is there such product.? If not is the alternative to have the pdf OCR ed then edited as doc.?
thanks
Sam
The Capture plug in is only available in windows platform.
Save yourself the time if your running Mac.
