Importation of scanned text into MS Word

P

Pierre A Plauzoles

Hello.

Sorry about this, but this is not really "general" -- in my book, anyway
-- but I don't know where to post this. I will let you, the experts,
decide where my message belongs.

When I scan text in either TextBridge (using an Epson 1240) or ABBYY
FineReader (using a Microtek 4900), I get a graphic file in Word
(versions 2003 and 2002, respectively) instead of text and it cannot be
either edited or converted to editable text. Why? How do I get MS Word
to bring it up on the screen as text ready to be edited?

Thank you.
