I am Roy, a physician and Baptist preacher. I have a 667 page book of my authorship in hard copy only. I need to make it available for digital readers because we have sold out most of the hard copies and I do not have funds to reprint. Can I scan it and use OCR and then tweak/correct it and have it converted into a Kindle format? How is the cheapest and least labor intensive way to get a hard copy of a large book into digital format where I can make it available for purchase. Thanks, Doc Roy
