I've successfully used ExperVision's RTK OCR toolkit for Windows from Python. Actually by using ctypes you should be able to call any of the many OCR engines that are available. Alas, all that I found that were really good were not free (but I haven't looked in well over a year). -Larry Bates -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
