Common Difficulties in Converting Hindi PDF

The Devanagari script, used for Hindi and other Indian languages, has complex characters and marks. Unicode is a standard used to display Devanagari characters across different platforms and software.

However, converting Devanagari text can be tricky for OCR tools because of differences in fonts and character shapes.

Fortunately, tools like PDFgear have advanced OCR features designed for Hindi PDFs, which help improve accuracy and reduce errors during conversion.

Here are common challenges in converting Hindi PDFs:

  • Font Embedding Issues: If the Hindi fonts aren’t embedded in the PDF, the text might not display properly on systems that don’t have these fonts installed.
  • Complex Script Rendering: Hindi uses conjunctions, character reordering, and diacritical marks, making it hard to convert PDFs accurately.
  • Text Extraction Problems: Extracting Hindi text can be difficult due to the script’s complexity and formatting issues.
  • Encoding Issues: If the PDF is not using Unicode, it may lead to incorrect display or text corruption in the Word file.
  • Search and Indexing Difficulties: Search functions may not work well with Hindi text, reducing document accessibility.
  • OCR Errors: OCR technology for Hindi isn’t as advanced as for Latin languages, so it may struggle to accurately convert scanned Hindi text.
  • Bidirectional text: If the PDF has both Hindi and English text, switching between reading directions (right-to-left and left-to-right) can be challenging.
  • Text and Image Separation: In some PDFs, the Hindi text might be part of an image instead of editable text, requiring OCR, which can be error-prone for Hindi.

Conclusion

Converting Hindi PDF files to Word without losing the original format can be challenging, but PDFgear’s powerful OCR feature helps solve this issue.

In addition to converting PDFs, PDFgear also offers a built-in PDF editor and PDF compressor, making it a complete tool for all your PDF needs.
