I have an HP Scanjet 3770 flatbed scanner wihch I use on Win XP Pro. It came with OCR software. The software knows how to scan (via OCR) directly into a .doc MS Word document or into an RTF file.

Because I don't have Word installed the software fails (not unreasonably) when I tell it to scan into Word. I've browsed the HP support sites and Goolged but so far ...


Hi Harold,

Under OO.o it appears that only scanning in as a graphic is supported directly. I have HP's Image Zone Plus on my XP box and NO MS Word either, IZ offers to scan via OCR to a wordpad file in this case. Once the scan and OCR pass is finished then I have to do a copy past from the Wordpad window it creates.
