[SEL] O.T. OCR Software - Need Recommendation

[William J Pfeiffer Sr]

Your scanner should have come with some decent OCR software, I have and HP 
3500C and it's OCR is dynomite, the best part is that is totally compatable 
with both Word and Excel.  The other one I have used and still have a 
current copy of is "Paperport" it is fairly easy to use and will save a 
document as a "template" or just a form.  This software as well as the HP 
software will also save a file in "fax" format as well as "email" format.
