Using Office 2003 OCR in your own programs
« on: October 31, 2007, 02:16 PM »
Interesting article here at CodeProject:
http://www.codeproject.com/office/modi.asp

Bascially, you can OCR documents with but a few lines of code using the Office MODI library, included free in Office starting with 2003.  And (according to the article) the results are quite impressive!

That is excellent! I never knew about that.

The Code Project just completely rocks. I love that site.
