Definitely useful.
I've run into several pdf documents that were scanned documents, and
it's quite the pain.
Can't do a thing with them at the moment, if your ocr will work, by
all means, write it.
I'd be happy to test it.

OK folks time to try out an idea on everyone.
What I'm thinking of is a program I'm going to call iOCR. This
program will take the front most document of Preview and run OCR on
it and then open the resulting text in TextEdit. I'm thinking of
using Googles open source OCR which I have working on a Mac. It
seems to do a good job and can deal with upside down pages.
This will likely be an Intel, Leopard only thing at first.
So useful or not?
