Thanks Pranav. I don't have office. How accurate have you found the translation? I will be working with allot of math formulas. My OCR for my Scanner / Printer moved some numbers around when I simply Scanned my resume into the computer and this would be bad if Word or other OCR did that with math formulas. 

Anyway, back to the grind.

Rick,

You do not need them. If you have Microsoft office 2003 or 2007, you can
print to an image or to xps format using the corresponding printers and then 
use the OCR built into office to recognise the text.

Good morning,

If you have an application like OpenBook or Kurzweil you can print the
article to that application's virtual printer and it should do the OCR for 


you.

HTH,
Everett

Hi:
Reading a Microsoft Article it has figure 1, figure 2 etc as examples of
code which, of course, does not read with Windoweyes. Are you aware of any 


software to reade these items or a handy OCR or something that will
reproduce them in text?
My printer has a OCR but I used it once and it rearranged some numbers,
not good for code of math formulas.
Any ideas? Otherwise I have a sighted person to read me the pictures, or
screen shots, and I can type them out. This is for a introduction to
Neural Networks project published in the Microsoft Magazine in Vb.net.
Thanks:
Rick USA
