I use a thing called microsoft document imaging which is built into/included in office 2003.

All I do is open any image or take a screenshot, save it as a .tif file and then document imaging can carry out OCR on it.

Not always perfect, but I already own it, so no extra costs.

Alternatively, if you can register on:
http://www.ocrterminal.com/

You can upload and process multiple file types, but you need to work around captcha to register and not really sure what the file number limit is - sometimes seems to stand at around 30 per day.

Stay well

Subject: [Blind-Computing] OCR Programs?


Hi
Although I have had great success with the OCR software I use, I would be interested in hearing about what types of OCR programs people are using and how they like them. I need to load an OCR program on my latest computer.

God bless,
Mark
