If you have Adobe Acrobat Professional, you can go to menus and
select Document tab and click on OCR Recognition (which uses the capital C
for the shortcut), then select "Recognize Text Using OCR . . ."  Then you
save the file after this function finishes.  Then you reopen the file.
Chances are this will not work very well but it is your best bet.  Most
forms and other types of legal documents use fonts that are not good enough
for most OCR work.  But since this is built into Adobe Acrobat Professional
it is the best solution that is easy to use.
