Issues with Adobe Acrobat Pro

So, I’ve been trying to scan some documents lately, but whenever I try to get the text into Word, everything just... falls apart? Like, the formatting goes completely sideways and nothing lines up right. It's pretty frustrating

Why bother with Word right away? Personally, I just have it scan directly to PDF first since that’s foolproof, then I move everything over to Word to format it properly.

I don't want to start a whole new thread, but does anyone know exactly what this means:

The Professional edition includes One per Seat license -> Microsoft Office Professional.

* The download version is an unlimited full version of Adobe Acrobat Pro. Once your payment clears, we'll send over the specific steps for downloading and installing the software.

I'm looking at getting version 11 for $140, but I need to run it on five different computers at my office—so I'm wondering if I actually need to buy five separate licenses to stay legal?

Yeah, if you need five licenses, you're actually looking at volume licensing territory—so you should probably just reach out to one of their reps. You'll likely score a better deal on a five-pack bundle rather than buying them individually: http://www.digitalmedia.com/

Since we’re already discussing Adobe Acrobat, I find myself facing a bit of a dilemma regarding my scanning process. I have quite a collection of newspaper clippings that I’m looking to digitize into PDF format. My goal is to create an "editable" document—essentially extracting the text from the articles while placing it against a clean, white background to strip away the distracting textures and wrinkles typical of old newsprint. The complication, however, lies in the layout; these articles include various photographs that I want to preserve. Ideally, I’d love for the final PDF to mirror the original newspaper layout perfectly, maintaining all the images and the exact positioning of elements, just without that messy paper background... Does anyone know the specific workflow required to achieve this?
I would be most grateful
