Greetings: Been reading and viewing tons of stuff but can't seem to
find if there's a "simple" solution I need..
Would like to scan a normal black on white typewritten page to a PBM
file, "P4", then convert that to a standard text ascii file.. (My
scanner is a HP ScanJet IIC, that defaults PBM)
My "pen friend" insists on sending me snail mail and letting me reply
via eMail.. I would like to import part of his text into my document
- as is usually done..
Any suggestions as to an easy solution? Both the OCR programs and
PBMPlus package are, seemingly, way too powerful for my simple
requirement.. (Or are they?) <grin>
TIA and cheers,
