Thanks George.  Yes the GIF images do contain text.

  Er! Um!  But GIFs are graphics?

  However, if the image contains text, it's possible to OCR with products like 
Omnipage.  See the link below where GIFs are mentioned.

    I have been asked by the webmaster of a particular website for the besst 
program for converting GIF images into a text format which can be read by 
screenreaders.
