OT - OCR software

Hey, gang. I have stacks upon stacks of handwritten and typed pages that I'd like to digitize. My scanner came with some OCR software, Omnipage SE, I think, but I've lost the CD. Do any of you use OCR software and can you recommend something? Thanks! -- Scott Loveless http://www.twosixteen
