Anyone familiar with OCR Scanning. Looking for suggestions on programs which would work better with different types of scans. For instance books are relatively easy since they don't have columns, but magazine and comic would require a different process. Also foreign languages is probably another issue to consider.

Would like to have .txt files of scanned articles which have been accumulated, so that they are searchable. Then for the foreign stuff online translation sites could help out.

If the OCR program played well with .cbr and .pdf formats that would be teh best.

and ideas, programs or suggestions of other issues to consider is welcomed.
