Say goodbye to manual counting and hello to a seamless, time-saving solution that empowers you to focus on what matters most – your content.

Step 2: Upload the scanned PDF
- Click on the application's 'Open File' button, usually found in the toolbar.
- Alternatively, you can upload the scanned PDF using the drag-and-drop feature. Simply drag the file from its location and drop it onto the PDF Reader Pro interface. Then, using the file explorer within the application, navigate to the file location and select the scanned document.
Step 3: Apply OCR to convert the document
- Find the OCR feature within PDF Reader Pro.
- Select the language of the document. This is important for accurate OCR conversion. Initiate the OCR process.
- Next, click the 'OCR' button in the middle. Wait for the OCR conversion to complete. This process will transform the image-based PDF into a text-based document.
Step 4: Count words in the converted document
- PDF Reader Pro doesn't have a built-in word count feature. You can use a third-party app.
- Paste the converted text-based document into the word-counting app.
- The application will display the entire document's total word and character count.

If you need a partial word count, highlight the specific section of the text before initiating the word count.
This can be useful for counting words in a specific paragraph or section of the document.
