What software are you using? I have had pretty decent luck with Adobe Acrobat's OCR system. The biggest issue with OCR is to get a clean and straight scan. You want the resolution set to about 250 - 300 dpi. and you want the final output to be a bitmap tiff. Not grayscale or RGB/CMYK. You definitely don't want it as a jpg.
