Use Vuescan on images
Vuescan is a scanning utility that among other things does OCR and other processing/conversion.
I would like to use it on some scan images I already have, but I can't see how to open images, the only input I can find is from the scanner. Anyone know how to do this? |

There's a nice user guide at Hamricks site http://www.hamrick.com/ - see around page 26 in the PDF-edition (probably a better explanation than I can give you). (You will probably not get as good OCR-results as you get with dedicated OCR-software - but feel free to share your findings ) Regards, Kim |

Yes, thanks. I'd tried that before, but from the manual now I see it wants "scan files" by which it means tiff. So I needed to convert the images (using Irfanview) before it would recognise them. |
