RE: Questions for the Forum

I can export the scan from PDF to word but not sure if that would help
at
all, I will try it if required.

I can re-do the scan at a higher res for OCR'ing but as Jon pointed out
it
does take time and since only 3 people so far have expressed an interest
I
did'nt do it.
