[Garnier Garnier]

Hello Listers,
 
Thanks for providing different options to extract text from jpeg files. 
 
I was provided a scanned manual (jpeg) that was converted to pdf and I wanted to extract and use some of the text. 
 
I finally purchased Abby FineReader - OCR software (www.abbyy.com ) from a retailer and could easily extract the required contents. Personally I found it easy to use except that the text needs to be reformated. 
 
Once again thanks to each of you who responded. It is sincerely appreciated.
 
THANKS
Garnier
