Re: How do I add a scanned document to microsoft works

I, personally, have not had to use any OCR software. So, no, I cannot recommend
any.

The only recommendation I can make is be sure it is Vista compatible, or get
positive recommendations for XP OCR from other Vista users.

Did the scanner come with any OCR Vista software? Or any downloadable Vista OCR
software from HP?
