OCR is optical character recognition. It will be a separate software.
Mine is OmniPage (but I have a canon scanner). You basically take each
column or section and use OmniPage to OCR it which turns the "picture"
font into true words. Then you paste it in Microsoft Word. You have to
go over the document because the OCR software doesn't always recognize
all the letters.
This software is generally bundled with your scanner. Check back to the
instructions and see.
