if you can save those images from the web
and make them tifs
then infty reader reads them and gives you what output format you want
including latex mathml and others.

  Have you used infty reader to read online webpages with embedded screen shots?
  Abby Fine Reader has a Developers package which also sounds interesting when 
thinking of use with scriptable screen readers.

    even best ocr programs rearange numbers with letters.
    For example a often mistake is to replace 1 with l.
    best I know is abby fine reader but I think they are others also.
    I use also a free one named infty reader
    which is capable to do math ocr.

      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:
