Default How do I scan text in Word so that I can than alter it?

We have new computers at work and I can no longer scan text (Scanjet 4300C)
as a Word document so that I can edit it. There is a program called Paper
Port attached to the scanner, but the documents are either pdf or tiff so I
can't do anything with them.

Get your IT department to reinstall the OCR software that came with the
scanner.
