Thanks. I was afraid of that.

  

  

Check out the ocrad package if you want to do OCR.


  


I checked with Yast and did indeed already have ocrad installed. It was
the usual OCR disappointment.

  

I use SimpleOCR running under wine with quite good results. You might
give it a whirl.

There is another OCR engine. I have not tested it

http://sourceforge.net/projects/tesseract-ocr
  
Google is trying to build on tesseract and other projects in Ocropus 
http://code.google.com/p/ocropus/
No tarballs yet, you need to check it out from Subversion and build it 
to try it out: http://code.google.com/p/ocropus/wiki/GettingStarted
