Convert Scanned Documents to Editable Text (OCR)

You can scan a document and convert the text into data that you can edit with a word processing,
spreadsheet, or HTML-editing program (M205). This process is called OCR (Optical Character
Recognition).
To scan and use OCR, you need to install an OCR program, such as ABBYY FineReader.
