When trying to OCR a pdf file, I got an error message that "Acrobat could not perform recognition (OCR) on this page because This page contains renderable text".

link to adobe site

I search what is renderable text and there was an old post explaining that renderable text is vector format shapes over an image, link.

when i copied the text from the file to a word document i would only get illegible charecters.

is it posible to extract the font in a renderable text pdf or extract the vector shapes and make from that a font?
