I currently use AutoCAD 2019; I regularly import Pdf files mainly drawings. In my Pdf import tab, I do not have Text Recognition and Text Settings available.
Show us what you see (and don't see) please: we don't know what you are looking at specifically.
And how do you know your PDF contains searchable text? Just as many have it as do not.
Can you search/edit/highlight text in your PDF viewer outside of AutoCAD? If yes, where do they show up, in the body of the text or in a side bookmark tab not related to it?
The commands PDIMPORT, PDFSHXTEXT & Combine Text are the commands in question. I have been looking at a tutorial about how to import a pdf, the text is usually separate individual items and how to join them together as a text group. You have to use the Pdf Text Recognition Settings Dialog Box. I noticed that after you click Insert on the Menu Bar, then choose Pdf Insert, there also appears in the window, Recognize SHX Text, Recognition Settings and Combine Text. How can I add this feature rather than having to type in each individual command?
After you import a Pdf file, the text is nearly always separate individual items, I want to add the commands to the Menu Bar that will allow you to join them together as a line text or a group text.
The commands are PDFIMPORT, PDFSHXTEXT & Combine Text
@niall.rasmussen thanks for the extra information: sadly, what you want is not n option to add to any core command/popup.
Looks like you will have to look for or develop your own (or find a 3rd party) add-on that combines all features of the different commands into one. These customization forums may be where you will head over next to ask for help doing that https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/autocad-customization/ct-p/AutoCADTopic1
