Convert Scanned jpeg into a word document.

I have a Epson OFFICE 620f printer/scanner/copier/fax m/c. I also have MS Office 2007 installed and operating system is Windows 7.

The scanner gives me a jpeg file, I would like to able to get this file into a state such that I can work on it using MS Word ... thanks

(This m/c that I want to do this on has Windows 7 Pro 64 bit installed)

Thanks guys ... really quick. However a problem it's not actually just text. It's a form that you have to enter information in and also a little bit is in Thai! So it doesn't come out well!!

Now you are really complicating the matter. I am afraid there is no help - maybe in Thailand for the Thai part.

doesn't the printer software allow you to save scans as a PDF then you can fill the forms using nitro pdf reader or acrobat etc
nitro is free and you can use it to edit pdf's

Thanks again ... no it just has Epson scan and only gives a jpeg image ... anyway my options are 20kms each way to get a new form ... make a new form in office (I'm half way through that) ... buy some erasing fluid tomorrow and then photocopy the repaired document ... next time I'll make an extra copy first!

Thanks for trying guys ...

Try any PDF editor like adobe acrobat pro or classicPDF and convert your file to the image format, and then used any free OCR service to convert it to word format, and then bring them back to PDF file, and within three step your work is done. I hope everything will work fine and smoothly for you!
