Edit a scanned document
You can edit a scanned document using your Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
software. Scanning text using OCR software enables you to bring the content of magazine
articles, books, and other printed matter into your favorite word processor and many other
applications as editable text. Learning to use OCR software correctly is important if you
want to obtain the best results. Do not expect scanned text documents to be letter-perfect
the first time you use your OCR software. Using OCR software is an art that takes time
and practice to master.
NOTE:
If you are using the HP Photosmart Software, the Optical Character
Recognition (OCR) software might not be installed on your computer. To install the
OCR software, you must re-insert the software disk and select OCR under the
Custom installation options.
