TRADOS 2024 AND SCANNED PDF PROBLEMS

Hi.

I bought Trados 2024 and i can not find a way to work with scanned PDFs.

I downloaded IRIS which has not been updated for 2024 and it can not be activated as it is indicated in a message after the installment.

How can I resolve the problem?

Thanks

    I have tried another online paid OCR conversion tool but the result was disappointing

    Indeed... I have as well, and never found a really good one.  I bought PDF-Xchange mainly for my wife as she does a lot of work with PDFs and often needs them to be editable.  This one rapidly became one piece of software I really enjoy working with... has all the sorts of things that anyone who enjoys customising will like!  It can even take javascript functions to automate tasks in a really easy way.

    The OCR feature I didn't play with much, but I'll make a point of trying it now with some PDF test files I have that are incredibly difficult to manage.  I also have the Plus version so do have this bit included... which I note also offers additional language support which could be useful:
