Guess I should'a added: IF you're a good typist or know one who'll help.

I learned on an electronic keyboard designed to teach touch typing (one of V-Tech's earliest products) and tested, rather quickly, at 80+ WPM. I manually copied a sixteen lesson course (with homework assignments) in -- relatively -- little time. There are programs that teach touch typing (a web search would turn up dozens of examples). You'd be surprised at how quickly you'll "get" it.

With OCR you wind up spending so much time manipulating and retyping the mis-translated text (move the cursor to the text that's been translated incorrectly, select the text using the keyboard or mouse, retype the text, move to the next error, repeat ad nauseum) ... then if there's any FORMATTING you'd like duplicated or to add that often has to be corrected or added manually. It's not worth it.

(Uh-oh -- OP's first post -- Waiting for the SPAMMER pretending to sell OCR software but really linking to a site loaded with malware ...)
