I'm trying to get a scanned document's, with Adobe, text copied so I can past it elsewhere, yet the text selecter won't work, and I have no clue what I'm doing. Can I use Adobe to do this, do I have to use something else, or am I screwed here and wasting my time???

You need OCR scanning software. Usually, you use the OCR software to scan the document then send it to Word to edit.

Yeah, you can't select text because it's not text - it is a PICTURE of text. There are programs that can read pictures of text, but they are not very reliable, and it might take longer to FIX the interpretation than to type it out from scratch.
Good luck!

you have scanned and gained a picture. you may desire to transform it to textual content fabric. you may desire to run OCR (Optical character acceptance) first. maximum modern-day scanners accomplish this immediately via a putting interior the test ideas menu "test to word processing" or something to that consequence.
