There are many PDF converters that offer basic conversion options, like converting native PDFs into MS Office documents or creating PDFs from these files. Only a small number of software provide an option to convert scanned images to editable formats, such as Word and Excel, and amongst them is the PDF Converter Elite 3.
Now, optical character recognition (OCR) conversion is a very sensitive operation that usually does not result in 100% accurate converted documents. Since image documents are scanned from printed or handwritten documents and the OCR software then needs to match the font with existing ones in its database, it’s not always possible to come up with an exact match. There are other elements in a scanned file that sometimes cannot be detected by the converter, like line breaks, footnotes and bulleted lists, but PCE 3 comes the closest to performing an accurate scanned image conversion.

- Click on the Open tab in the menu bar and, browsing through your files, select a scanned image you wish to convert.
- After opening your chosen document, click on the Convert tab and from the drop-down menu select either “Image to Word” or “Image to Excel”, depending on which format you want to convert your image into.
- After you click on your chosen conversion, you will see a green button in the dynamic sidebar on the right. If you are converting to Excel, just click on the “Convert to Excel” button.
