Free OCR

[NormanCohen]

Over the past months or years, I've noticed several inquiries as to whether
there were any freeware OCR applications "out there". I thought there was,
but hadn't come across it for a long time until this morning when I re
reviewed a backlog of available freeware from my snapfile feed (December,
2005). I have no idea whether it works, or if it works, how well. I think
it is an old program with a new incarnation of label.

Thats the best choice, but it only does docs, not handwriting...

Mild Nagware?

I thought the OCR was the 'Copy text to clipboard' extension in the
Edit menu.

I guess not. )
