ABBYY FineReader PDF 15 recognized this document just as badly, but Adobe Acrobat Pro DC 2022.002.20212 x64-bit recognized it perfectly (usually, it recognizes documents worse than PDF-XChange).

К сожалению, у меня не сохранились образцы документов, и я закрою данную тему, как более неактуальную.

I do this 99.9% of the time when I need to add recognized text to a PDF document. That is, I need text that was previously only found visually to be found by searching through files, and then selected and copied when the file is opened. But the document's appearance remains unchanged. This is exactly what Searchable Image is for, and it almost always does a great job.
Okay - thanks for the clarification, that makes sense. As I'm sure you know, you can achieve similar results with the other two OCR options, but if you want to retain the original page content then the option you're using is correct.
Kind regards,
