Transfer scanned text document to word or other program
Is it possible, and what are the processes, to scan a large text document and
then be able to add, delete or modify it and track those changes.( so the original maintains its integrity.) I'm trying to avoid retyping the whole document into word, and then again having to retype the changes. Thank You for any help ..... |

G'Day "Lovemydogs",
I hope that I have understood your question. Most of the better OCR (Optical Character Recognition) packages will recognise scanned text, preserve most of it's formatting and then allow it to be saved to Word (I use ABBYY FineReader, and it will also recognise in multiple languages). Word is probably the best tool for applying and tracking the changes. Word will also store multiple versions of a document within a single file, you can open, review and print all versions, although you may Modify only the most recent version. See Word Help on "About saving versions of a document". -- Regards, Pat Garard Australia _______________________ "Lovemydogs" wrote in message ...
