You can scan a document and convert the text into a format that you can edit with a word processing program. This
process is called OCR (Optical Character Recognition). To scan and use OCR, you need to use an OCR program, such as
the ABBYY FineReader program that came with your scanner.

Note:

ABBYY FineReader may not be included in some countries.
