Answer 2

"Do you need to use information from a scanned document in your online document or PowerPoint presentation? Instead of retyping, you can use Microsoft Office Document Imaging, a program included with Microsoft Office, to quickly and easily reuse text that is normally locked inside a scanned image or online fax. In Document Imaging, you can use optical character recognition (OCR) to translate images of text, such as scanned documents, into actual text characters. Also known as text recognition, OCR makes it possible to copy and paste that text into any Office program."
