Home > Tutorials > How to Scan to Word?
Have you seen something in a magazine/book and you'd like to change a few words in it here and there? Now you don't have to type out the whole page. There is a way to turn those magazine/book pages into Microsoft Word documents without typing! Instead, you can use your scanner to scan them through our OCR Free, which helps convert scanned images to Word to save on your computer.
Launch
OCR Free and click "Scan..." to choose a scanner
connected to your computer and activate the scanner program of your
system.
Click
"OCR" to extract the text from the selection. The
extracted text will display in the text window in several seconds.
Click the text window and you can find some documents tools on the
top. "Clear Text Window" is to delete all of the
text and there is "Remove Line Breaks" button for
easier editing. You can also click "Copy all Texts to Clipboard"
to copy text in order to place it into the application of your choice.
Click
"Export Text into Microsoft Word" to output the
extracted text in Word, then you can save it as Word document. (To
save the extracted text as *.txt, click "Save Text".)
