Hi,



I\'m currently using OmniPage12 to recognize a protected PDF English file that contanis Japanese characters. Omnipage recognized the English characters but not the Japanese.

Is there a way to make Omnipage recognize other characters like Japanese or Chinese?

Does fine reader recognize these characters?



Thanks a lot for your reply!
