I have an HP Multi-function unit. I have heard taht these units can
sometimes have complications regarding scanning and converting to text with
JAWS. I use JaWS version 11. Is this correct? I use Solutions Center with
my multifunction unit and I cannot seem to get the process right when it
comes to scanning. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. Jerry

They can scan the document and send the image file to you. If you have an
older version of Microsoft Office you can do the OCR from within Word. If
you have a newer version of Microsoft Office you can use Microsoft OneNote
to do the OCR.
If you have neither, but have JAWS 13, you can try the Convenient OCR
package for JAWS.
If you have none of the above, you can try submitting the image to one of
the free on-line OCR engines.
