Good Evening Joe & All

I've just been scanning financial articles to send to relatives in Oz with a Canon 8000F which came with Omnipage OCR.

Scanning small smudgey newsprint for OCR can be problematic. The Omnipage procedure works best to *.doc. Consequently I use this workaround: it may seem long-winded but as it is all done in Clipboard it is very quick.

I save the OCR result as a *doc file, copy and insert it into Notepad; that simple action removes most of the dross. Next copy Notepad and run Stripmail [which works on the Clipboard] then just paste the result into the original document sitting open in Open Office 2.3.1

Yours aye

Hi guys,
Was wondering if there is anything similar to doc scanning (and ocr in MS Office ugh!) in OOo.
