| 806925 | 2009-09-05 01:38:00 | Hi Sting Ray. Check out your scanner manual. I have a Cannon Lide 25 scanner which has an OCR (Optical Character Recognition) option. ;) | Scouse (83) | ||
| 806926 | 2009-09-05 03:21:00 | I use Textbridge Pro, and after you get it all trained, it runs pretty good. But then ----- there are times! Free OCR was a blow-out. |

| 806927 | 2009-09-06 12:48:00 | If you have MS Office then you can use Microsoft Office Document Imaging. Under Office Tools in the start menu. It only works with TIF files, so you will have open the JPG in pain and save as TIF. If you don't have MS Office then try these: http://www.simpleocr.com/ http://www.onlineocr.net/ Blam |

| 806928 | 2009-09-06 13:20:00 | I hardly ever used OCR myself, when I did it was the Textbridge that came with my scanner. Though I expect there is a much better version of it now | Agent_24 (57) | ||
