PowerTwain, which came with my PC, is the biggest heap of junk on earth.
Does anyone know of any freeware scanning programs, that are able to
recognize printed text and be able to transfer the text to a word document
or similar? Also, the ability to "photocopy" directly to the printer at 1:1
aspect ratio would be great.
Wocar old but OK:
Wocar v2.5 Not happy with the OCR software that came bundled with
your scanner? Wocar is a nice freeware 32-bit alternative. It takes your
scanned documents and transfers them into editable rich text. It works
with both English or French languages. Once you've completed the scan,
your document can be edited in the program's built-in WordPad-like editor.
Options let you extract fonts and images, highlight possible errors, remove
noise from the scanned document, and add words to both dictionaries.

and the second half....
Copy Machine Helps get an immediate
copy of a document or photograph, this software will automatically
turn that Twain Scanner into a personal copying machine. If anything,
it saves you a few steps (and perhaps a few pennies). Copying
Machine is quick, clean, configurable, and convenient.
Freeware version:
~1.2Mb on my Graphics1 page or here:

Enjoy!
