Default How do I import a scanned resume to Word?

But be very careful using it, especially on a resume. OCR is not reliable and
you can come up with nonsense or worse. A scanned document is a picture of
your document, just like a Xerox copy. You cannot edit it, but you can save
it as a picture.

By running the scanned image through Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
software. You probably got something bundled with your scanner.
