I would convert the manual to PDF, then try the built in OCR in a recent
version of Acrobat or a dedicated tool, such as Omnipage.
I have found Acrobat's OCR to be cumbersome and not particularly
accurate. Older versions of MS Word (up to 2007) included Document
Imaging in the Office > Tools menu; apparently OneNote that comes with
current Office installations does OCR automatically on any image
containing text:
