Speechify is absolutely brilliant. Growing up with dyslexia this would have made a big difference. I’m so glad to have it today.

ABBYY FineReader PDF reviews

FineReader PDF scanned and OCRed large technical documents with tables and fine print. It was a great surprise to see it recommend using a higher resolution scan in some cases. The higher resolution worked well. I used the "reverse even pages" option and it automatically re-orded scanned pages properly.

This software is incredible. I needed a way to scan documents from languages not in the FineReader database. This software provided the simple tools to select all characters in a new language. I work with native languages in the remote areas of Honduras and Nicaragua. There are no tools for scanning in Miskitu. There are many things printed, but the character set contains elements that are not in standard languages, such as Spanish. This software enables me to choose the language name and then select its character element base. When the software reads the scanned sheet it always picks up the correct elements and I have a copy in Word that can be edited.

I like the OCR and all functions included in this product. I appreciated the easier use and the immediate work with it. I can suggest acquiring it to work easily and speed.

PDFCreator reviews

Editing PDFs with the professional plan is why I purchased it in the first place. I wanted a solid PDF editor, and while it's only mildly clumsy to do things like drawing shapes and arrows, it is still a pretty solid pdf editor, generator, converter, splicer and all of that.

The best pdf writer with a lot of features

- Pascal V. it consultant

I like the ease of use and that you can turn almost any document or picture into a PDF document, which in some instances it is easier to edit.

Pros & cons

ABBYY FineReader PDF

Pros
Cons"The main drawback of ABBYY FineReader is the inability to view the history of document changes in your account
The second minus is that there is no tool for merging several files into one
The preview does not work, there is no tool to merge several files into one, often manual editing is required
ABBYY FineReader is much inferior to Adobe Acrobat Pro
We use this tool for scanning hard copies of surveys, questionnaires, CVs and all kinds of standard documents such as contracts."

Cons
Pros"I like the fact that developers monitor their product: they constantly fix bugs, add new useful features and modify old ones
The product is just nice to use
I love that this tool lets me convert reams of printed docs into softcopies that I can save and save in my PC
It also allows you to export to multiple file formats in addition to Microsoft Word
What I like most about this software is the amount of time we save by using it
Best OCR reader for translators of complicated documents."

PDFCreator

Pros
PDF Creator is a great platform that is easy enough for anyone to use
It is the platform I use to create my official documents
I had to create PDF files of my notes for my classmates before
I used this to do it and they were so happy that the pictures were all together in one file and clearly visible to study from
I have been having a great experience with this software working on my documents and reports
Overall the product is very good and well worth the download."

Cons
If you don't know what you are doing specifically you will find yourself lost and confused
While there are many options there is limited instruction on how to use all features
At some point they started including adware with the package which was frustrating
As long as you are cautious during install it is fairly easy to avoid installing unwelcome extras
I used the freetrial for my class work and sometimes I had trouble uploading everything
There's some features I still don't know how to use or think I will even use
The creating fillable forms is more difficult that it should be."
