    Hi,I have got a paper text document that I want to change about.

    I scan it in,then open Word and insert picture from file.It comes up into my Word document but I can't change the text.

    Is it possible to do this,and if it is - How?

    BTW - I'm using Photosuite 3 if that makes any difference.

    Hope this makes sense.

    Glad to see the site running again.



    :)

    As far as I know, you cannot scan directly to word. You need to use OCR software to can in text and then edit it. You can do a search for OCR programs, you may even be able to find some freeware OCR programs.
