<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2>Some text is copied and from a pdf file and pasted into a text or Word file. It contains errors- say, for example, 'the' has become 'die' (you notice that in the original pdf the 't' and 'h' are quite close together). At what stage has this misrecognition/ miscopying occured? </FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2>Where does the OCR take place? The OCR functionality is, presumably, part of of the .pdf reader software itself?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT size=2>Can anything be done to deal with the problem? </FONT></DIV>
