OCR Software comes in many different types which vary in price range
based on their features, speed, and accuracy. For instance, you can get a
freeware such as Simple OCR that will serve in a pinch, but it will only
be able to convert BMP, JPG, and TIF images of English or French text
into plain text documents of TXT or DOC format, one page at a time.
On the other hand, you can invest a few hundred pounds in a Batch OCR
or even Server OCR software that will be able to watch particular folders
for incoming documents in a variety of image formats and languages,
then automatically recreate exact copies of all of the pages therein in a
format of choice.
You can also find Desktop OCR software, which will bridge the price
gap and include many of the features of the Corporate editions but still
require some user input during conversion.
