Giveaway of the day — PDF Text OCR Xtractor 3.2.2.20
PDF Text OCR Xtractor 3.2.2.20 was available as a giveaway on October 12, 2025!
PDF Text OCR Xtractor is perfect to extract text from PDFs and all kinds of popular image formats, such as PNG, JPG, BMP, and TIFF.
PDF Text OCR Xtractor uses Tesseract OCR technology. Tesseract is perhaps the most powerful and advanced OCR software out there and here is why: First of all, a bit of history. It was developed by HP in 1994, but soon the company released it under Apache License for open-source development. In 2006, Google took over the project and sponsored developers to work on Tesseract. Fast forward now and Tesseract has become the most powerful OCR engine that uses Deep Learning to extract texts from images (BMP, PNG, JPEG, TIFF, etc.) and PDF files.
PDF Text OCR Xtractor supports 20+ different languages and lets you set custom processing parameters to source files/images, such as smoothening and DPI adjustment, increasing contrast, and other useful tricks, before analyzing them.
PDF Text OCR Xtractor has high accuracy and will get any image or PDF you have into editable searchable text. The conversion from image to text is quick.
Main Features:
1. Use of the best OCR technology available.
2. Support for 20+ different languages.
3. Useful image transformations to enhance accuracy on difficult documents.
Extra Features:
1. Cheapest Tesseract engine graphical user interface you can possibly find!
2. Support for PDF and all common image formats like PNG, JPG, BMP.

Hi. Downloaded & installed above software on Win10 but unable to get it to run. Uninstalled & re-installed a second time with same issue arising. Sadly no support options available. So now have uninstalled software. Cheers.

I prefer Vovsoft OCR Reader https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/ocr-reader-3-3/ it has the advantage that it is programmed properly and does not dump executables into the subfolder of the users Documents folder like this does!

How to install additional language? Program says:
"Language not installed. Do you want to install it?"
After pressing YES nothing happens...

Downloaded onto W7 PC. Installed and it is pre-registered, so nice & quick.
Copy/pasted a birthday card from the internet, choosing an obscure font and put it to the test.
Very quick and 90 - 95% accurate - better than I expected.
No doubt at all that with normal clear font that I would expect 99% or better, rate of conversion.
Life time free is def a keeper.
Prob best offering of the year (so far)
Thanks GAOTD.

This GAOTD version refuses to install Arabic, despite the language being listed as supported. That should have been indicated before installing the Program.

This program does not extract PDF's in full English, needs improving, but thank you again. Maybe I'm just not doing this right somehow. I have the language on English, but I still get a different language in the extraction in different paragraphs.

Terry Z.,
Well that is weird. An OCR program does not read or translate it just converts the image of letters to actual text. It may be that some paragraphs have fonts that are hard to convert or a background that blends with the text and it outputs gibberish that looks like another language

RWW, that's a great point you made. I will check this out. Like I said before, it was probably just something I was doing wrong. Thanks again.

RWW,
Well done for getting the download email.

Terry Z., OCR isn't perfect. Some are very good, but very expensive.

Terry Z., what is the language in the PDF file? If it's all ENglish then there's a problem, but if some of the paragraphs are in a different language then what else do you expect? it's not a translating OCR Xtractor and language setting does not mean or imply it translates other languages to the selected language but that it uses training data specifically for that language. But one can OCR latin text with tesseract engine using ENglish training data... and end up with quite accurate editable latin text if the source material is good.
