FineReader is considered to be "the best". Just don't save it as "Exact Copy", save it as "Formatted Text", or at least as "Editable Copy". Then you won't have any of those text boxes or strange margins. Personally, I always save it as "Formatted Text" and compare it to the (processed) scans that were run through Scan Tailor first. Then the layout re-creating process begins. Oh, the joy...
