No, the scanner itself doesn`t but the driver disk that came with it contains ReadIris which is an OCR prgram.
I succeeded!yahhh! To copy the page into Calc,finally!. I use readiris to copy it to desktop as a csv file. Now the only prob is when I open it in writer or calc it has all these ::`s in it that I cannot delete by using find and replace,as I think,the ::`s are part of the numbers. anyone know how to delete these/ I CAN do it in Notepad,but have to step to each number,delete the ::`s,then copy the numbers to calc,which DOES work ,but is a pain. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Adams" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, February 22, 2008 3:31 PM Subject: Re: [users] image to csv > On Fri, 22 Feb 2008 15:21:55 -0500 > Howard wrote: > > > ok, I had an otg file and a jpeg of the same. > > > > Now I can`t find the otg file. > > Doesn't matter.
