If you should have to do this more than once, you will buy appyyocr,
I'm afraid it only works in Windows, but I'd like to find out I'm wrong.
It is very difficult to edit the result of a converter that is only
80% correct. Letters run together--frequently--producing other letters
and signs. "l" becomes "1" , lower case letters become upper, or
sometimes numbers--"o" > "0"--it's a mess. I did this on a 4 page
file about 6 months ago, and I will order abbyyocr if I ever have to
do it again!
One of the editing problems is just finding the error. Sometimes it
is not obvious, but it's wrong! You really need to put on your
"schoolteacher's glasses" and become Miss Grundy.
You have been warned!
