When you scan the original, make sure that you select a document type in the software that creates

If you are using a separate OCR (optical character recognition) program, the OCR program might be
linked to a word-processing program that does not perform OCR tasks. For more information, see the
documentation provided with the OCR program.

Check the originals
When scanning documents as editable text from the ADF (HP Officejet Pro 3620 only), the original
must be loaded into the ADF with the top forward and face up. When scanning from the scanner glass,
the original must be loaded with the top facing the right edge of the scanner glass. Also, make sure
the document is not skewed. For more information, see
Load an original on the scanner glass or
Load
an original in the automatic document feeder (ADF) (HP Officejet Pro 3620 only).
The software might not recognize text that is tightly spaced. For example, if the text that the software
converts has missing or combined characters, "rn" might appear as "m."
The accuracy of the software depends on the image quality, text size, and structure of the original and
the quality of the scan itself. Make sure that the original has good image quality.
Colored backgrounds can cause images in the foreground to blend too much.
