Remember, too, if you have Adobe Acrobat Pro, it has built-in OCR
capability. Pro is not free, but if you already have it then the OCR part is
basically free.
I really do like MODI, as others have said. It works great, and it is still
free with MS Office-just very hard to find!!!

Hi all,
I have had mixed outcomes and incomplete file conversions with G-drive.
Would love to hear from others who have successfully converted (medium
size) from PDF to OCR recognized text.
Thanks,

Good morning fellow ATHENites,
Does anyone have any recommendations for OCR freeware that I can pass along
to some faculty that would like to make accessible documents for their
students?
