    Hi All. Have a pdf copy of a long out of print antiquarian book that I'd like to be able to OCR - however the pages are too yellow...

    Does anyone know if it possible in Acrobat to fade out the yellow on a scanned page, so that running OCR will pick up the text easier? i want to somehow increase the contrast I guess...

    Any ideas?

    I know that Abbyy Finereader is considered highly for its OCR so maybe download a trial, give it a go see how it does?
