Hi Khalid, If you are just scanning books, why not tell Omnipage to scan as text?

I'm wondering how can I read a paper sent to me as a jpg file via omni page. one idea comes to mind, printing the jpg file then scanning it, but this way is impractical. Can some one tell me of another way to read the jpg file by using omni page directly. Is there a sort of image recognition in OP14? I only use OP for scanning books. Thanks in advance Khalid
