So, your book comes up in pdf? If yes, is it possible to save that pdf file for OCR?

Hi I have been practicing with Google Books today. I thought I would report my findings so far. First I search for a fraise,, next I press enter on the link that indicates that the entire book is available. After that there is a link that says plain text. Once a person presses enter on this the page loads with the book in plain text. Yes! It is wonderful. Totally screen reader friendly. Now, if I can only get it to work on the Google book that I actually need, I will have it made.

Microsoft document Image scanning is an option for virtual scan, but as I say Kurzweil is , in my experience, pretty hopeless with google Books and sadly the Microsoft option is only a little better. I think Google books is a genuinely hard access nut to crack. I am not sure that if you try printing the whole web page whether anything will come out which you can physically scan. You could give this a try though.
