Andrew,
If you have MS Office, Microsoft has an OCR engine built in. I used it
to OCR some college yearbooks at MPOW. It's not ABBYY but it works
pretty well! It's scriptable using VBScript or your MS language of
choice.

Notice the "OCR" method in the document.
Could someone comment on the efficacy of this OCR on languages with
non-latin characters?
cheers
