Hi,
Tried that free program, but it didn't work.
Thanks for letting me know about it anyway.

The FreeOCR program at http://www.paperfile.net/ will OCR a scanned
image PDF. I haven't tried it with Window-Eyes but it did work with
another screen reader. It does take a long time to load and it didn't
start speaking, for me anyway, at first. But I did load a PDF in and
then did the OCR and it would read it. Might not be the most accessible
but I think you can make it work for what you want it to do. And it's
free.

I wish there was an inexpensive way of extracting the text from an image
in a PDF document.
I can't aford Kurzweil and I get this stuff all the time.
