I need to scan printed list of names/ adfressesand have computer format on template and print as mailing labels. when scan image and open ocr program, I can only save as bmp , pdf, or tiff. There is no option to save as rtf for word .how do I get image saved as word file to then format and print as labels? Trying to avoid typing info into each block of template, but rather have computer put info into parameters to print labels from scanned page. |

You need to scan into Omnipage (or use Omnipage to convert your scanned
image) to produce an editable text file. Set Omnipage to produce a plain text output then use the following link to convert the list into a data format that Word can use for a label mail merge.

Check out Abbyy's FineReader -- a great OCR program that, IMHO, is
better even than Omnipage. You can DL a trial copy that will work for a few days. *(((({ In the last exciting episode on Thu, 9 Dec 2004 07:25:18 -0000, "Graham Mayor" wrote: |You need to scan into Omnipage (or use Omnipage to convert your scanned |image) to produce an editable text file.

While I have no argument about the merits of Finereader, the OP already has
Omnipage which should do what is required. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org *(((({ wrote: Check out Abbyy's FineReader -- a great OCR program that, IMHO, is better even than Omnipage.
