Still, they may occasionally come in handy if you occasionally need to convert a couple of pages. I generally use OnlineOCR, which has a limit of 15 pages/hour as a guest user, or Free Online OCR, which will limit your free conversion to 10 pages. There are some machines with OCR-scan capabilities, but we don't have them and this is a quick & easy alternative for us.Īs some mentioned, you can also upload the pdf to Google Drive and then open it with Google Docs, but I've had much worse luck maintaining formatting that way.Ģnd Edit: There are certainly limitations to the services since they are free, so in that sense it's not all that great for bulky scans. In this catalog, we have collected the most widely used medical forms which can be easily filled out online and are also printable and downloadable. Some things might be worth retyping just to err on the side of caution!įor those asking what scanners we use, they are big Savin multi-function copy machines. Edit professional templates, download them in any text format or send via pdfFiller advanced sharing tools. Certainly look into them before uploading anything with confidential info. Regarding privacy, many of the websites state in their Privacy Policy/Term & Conditions/FAQ whether or not they store your documents, and for how long. We use them in work all the time because our scanners only create pdfs, jpegs or tiffs.Įdit: Glad people found this tip helpful! Just wanted to add a couple of things: Once it opens, make any edits you need to.
Word will automatically convert the PDF into an editable Word document. People may be interested to know that there are plenty of free OCR websites (Optical Character Recognition) that will convert your PDF "image" into actual, editable text. In Word, head to File > Open and then navigate to the PDF file that you'd like to edit.
