Hi Paul,
Do you have Adobe CS4 installed? If so, the installed adobe acrobat pro allows for text editing: Perhaps scanning the page as a .pdf document and then using .pdf functionality such as notes so students can add their notes and answers. PDF also allows you to type to the document if the correct security is used. Kind Regards Janine Stone Pacific Lutheran College From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of paul Sent: Sunday, 18 July 2010 11:21 AM To: QSITE ICT Teachers Subject: [qsiteict] Converting printed sheets to digital 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.
