App to go from scan/image of document to text?

[Chase R]

All my teachers give us study guides for for midterms and finals and such. It would be really nice to scan these into a word document or text document so I can add information to them... Is there any free, or relatively cheap apps that can do this for me? Thanks!

Not sure but what you're looking for is a free OCR app.

Cool thanks. I had no idea what that sort of app was called.
