There are web services that will convert graphic pdfs and other non-text formats for free or with a optional donation. They can convert a page or an entire book or lengthy document into a variety of formats if your scanner or OCR does not work.

In order to fix this issue, you'll have to increase your DPI (dots Per Inch) as it would seem that your scanner isn't up to the task. If that doesn't work, try scanning it into a colour document, while increasing the DPI, and see if that works. It'll take you a while to scan a document, but if you want accuracy, then this is the price you'll have to pay, that, or get a better scanner. Smiles.

I solved it by making sure the option on how to read the document was set to "left to right". Hope this helps.

I have recently noticed a problem with Adobe Acrobat Reader DC version 17.0. For some reason, words are often run together in the document when I'm trying to read it. This problem does not appear on the visual screen. In other words, if someone sighted looks at the document, it looks fine, with no words or characters run together. This seems to occur mainly with Microsoft Word documents that have been converted to a PDF file format. I'm thinking that this problem might be a Jaws issue, because the document displays fine visually. Has anyone else had this issue, and if so, is there something I need to change either in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC or Jaws to make documents read more properly? Thanks as always!
