I haven't used it for anything like that but PhotoPlus is my default image program since I downloaded it free a few weeks ago. There's also a DrawPlus program listed. Check out the details on the site to see if one of them will work for you.

Hi there,\nMy husband and I bought an Epson RX620 which does fantastic photo's. We use the epson matt photo papar to get the best results. We paid approx £180.00 for it, and it has an inbuilt  scanner too. Hope this is helpful to you, we are glad we bought it and have recommended it to friends.\n\nregards,\nMaggie C

You have to use an Optical Character Recognition software (OCR). Usually one comes with the scanner.  It reads the page, and does its best to convert the page into a text file that you can edit.

As mentioned above, a scanner can be used for putting a picture or text onto your computer. If you haven't seen one, they mostly look like very small copy machines(with the glass window where the object is placed). I doubt you are referring to the radio scanner, but they are devices that scan through a set of frequencies you enter, so that you can hear the police ar other emergency workers talking over their radios.

Try getting the text of a text node using the nodeValue or textContent property. This should return an already decoded text (tried it with Firefox and IE and it works).

The software to use is WinRar as answered. It works the same way as WinZip. Simply double click/right click, and un-rar to a folder. \n\nI myself prefer WinRar over WinZip, as i really like the function called 'Extract Here'. (I'm not sure if this function exists on WinZip or not)\n\nCheck out the link below to download the free software.

First open up your photo editor program on your computer. Then select to get the photo from the scanner. When it has scanned, go to 'Save As' and choose jpeg.\n\nIf you don't have a good photo editor program, I've included a link where you can download PhotoPlus for free. It even includes an image optimizer which will show you how much space on your hard drive it will take to save a picture at each quality level.

there is no program to do it, and there's no easy way.\nmethod 1) ask a person who reads japanese\nmethod 2) figure out what characters are in the picture and use an online translator like world.altavista.com or other site

OK I know this is going to sound really weird but here goes....\n\nI went to yahoo and searched pic's and tried to download a pic and got the same thing (I'm running the same as you and IE7... not sure what you are running)    I also just had the option of a bitmap form for saving.   \nI then went to Google pic's and tried there and got both options bitmap and JPEG.\nSo decided to go back to Yahoo and take another look... but when I went back all of a sudden both options were available.\nI tried it again with another pic at Yahoo - the first time only Bitmap option was available - but one I went out of the site - went to Google - then back again - both were available.  Really Strange to say the least.  Something is messed up somewhere.  Will look into it further and see if I can find out anything or maybe someone else knows something more.

The previous answers are wrong.   If your documents are truly scanned (that is, they are bit images of your pages, with text on them), you need OCR, optical character recognition software.  As far as I know, Adobe doesn't make this.  \n\nOmniPage is the name of one such program.  Before you buy it, make sure  it can read the format of file (PDF) that you have.\n\nKeep in mind that the process is not perfect and depends on the quality of the scanning that was done.   Even with very good scanning, the documents are likely to need some final editing to make them error-free.

Recolored is the program for you. It's VERY effective, and easy to use. Works like a charm. I was shocked with the results it gives. Their website also provides examples of before-and-after images.

Hi, earlier i worked in matlab a bit. Im not getting your purpose. Anyhow have u tried imread function to read the image or which one? I think its better to use some mathematical algorithm to arrive at it. As u say that u were able to mark the centre, U may be using some logic to reach the centre and mark it. Aren't u able to compute the pixels as u traverse from the left corner of the pic to mark the centre. I know im not answering your question directly. But i was excited to help you out in Matlab. Anyhow if u dont get any clue, please update me with your problem. Will try my best to help you out. vijaygoodday@yahoo.com

If you have a printer that has a scanner on it, take what u need to scan, scan it on the printer, and you should see a screen that automatically comes up with what u have scanned. Review ur options, edit and save the document. (don't 4get where u saved it). Open up MS word, look for the open foler button on the toolbar, click the button and look in the drop down menu for your hardware options (whether u saved it in my documents, local C drive, 3 1/2 floppy, etc.). Find it and open it, the document that u scanned should now appear in the MS word document, and from there u can edit the document and save as u wish. I hope this helps. If u need anymore help hit me back!
