From: Cecelala on 19 Feb 2010 17:17 I have an HP psc 2210xi all-in-one printer/scanner. I am trying to scan an application (job application) onto my pc (Dell - XP operating system) as a fillable usable form that I can make changes to. I am using MS Office suite 2007. Can I do it in word or should it be a different MS Application? Thank you, Cecelala

I think you'll find that the people there will be a lot more familiar with this issue than those who check in on XP Basic. That said, you might begin by going to your Start menu and look under Microsoft Office Tools for an entry titled Microsoft Office Document Imaging. Click on it. Once the program launches click on File -> Scan New Document. Once the scanning is finished click on Tools -> Send Text to Word. Don't be surprised if the output looks very different from the original document. If you're lucky you won't have to spend a lot of time redoing the formatting so it matches up with the original. The few times I've used Microsoft Office's OCR software I've found it to be somewhat less than perfect. If you get stuck, click on the Help menu at the top of the window. Good luck Nepatsfan
