Abbyy FineReader 6.0 Professional has OCR down pat and performs extra formatting magic too, such as extracting text from Adobe Acrobat PDF files and exporting scanned documents in PDF or HTML format. For example, you could scan a magazine page instead of having to manually type and reformat it. By converting paper documents and image files into fully editable text documents, OCR saves you invaluable time.
FineReader is a bit too expensive for most consumers and contains far more features than most of us need, but it has the right tools for the business set.Optical character recognition, or OCR, software can sweep the text right off your paper documents and into your computer.
