I think the Greek text is the more important, but ocring both would be nice. I usually use Elucidate, which is a front-end for Tesseract. I don't know if it can ocr both languages at once.
See my OCR help page for my experiences using tesseract to OCR multiple languages with k2pdfopt as a front end.
