I use OmniPage  17 - it copes well with mixed layout

How about just leaving it as an image and using paint to type the answers?

Hi
I hope someone may have a relatively easy solution for my problem.

My wife has a kid in yr3 who has broken in his hand and will be out of action 
for 6 weeks. She wants to convert some sheets she'd use in class to digital, so 
he can do them on a laptop. Most sheets are a mixed layout - she needs to get 
them into a word format to allow the kid to type in answers.

I tried using free OCR software (OmniPage 9), but the mixed layout seems too 
much, and the output really isn't worth the effort.

Tried converting it with Zamzar and then PDF to Word, but that's a pretty 
convoluted process.

Has anyone got any suggestions ?- I've included an attachment to show the sort 
of thing (just a snippet) that we're converting.

Look forward to your suggestions.

Paul
