With the last couple of type-ins I've done, I just took archive.org's existing 
OCR (plain text is one of the download formats of many books) and cleaned it up 
a little in a text editor.  Two seconds in unix2dos and it's ready for loading.

For those with access to Acrobat, it does a perfectly good OCR -- somewhat 
better than Internet Archive's.  There are also plenty of decent open source 
OCR options already in most distributions of most operating systems, as well as 
in Homebrew.

All the same, I've been happy just using Internet Archive's so-so-at-best OCR 
as a starting point.
