Hi, For the moment a good and easy GUI application for Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is still missing in Mageia. Tesseract has pretty good result, but without GUI it will never be used by a lot of users. This project that I started using under Linux Mint gives a very easy to use solution when combined with tesseract: http://sourceforge.net/projects/gimagereader/ KR, Sitor
