Hello In theory you should be able to OCR any image with text in it. If you have Kurzweil you can use the Kurzweil virtual printer to print any image and Kurzweil will open and try to OCR text in the image. I do not find Kurzweil a great at OCR though.
Another approach is to use Microsoft Document Imaging and run OCR from the Tools menu. Document Imaging uses tiff files rather than jpg. You can use a fee graphics viewer like Irfanview to convert jpg to tiff. Simply save the file in Irfanview and tab to files of type and select tiff from the drop down list. Irfanview is freeware and Google will pull it up. Document Imaging comes with Microsoft Office and can be found in the Start menu under Microsoft Office and then Office Tools.
