Hi,

I am doing my postgraduate study and I am planning to develop an ocr software for my project work, but I could not get any reference about the topic or any help, if u coud help me giving information about the building steps and references it will be very helpful

Try CopernicAgent Basic... download and install... it found a bunch of OCR stuff for me... not that I had any interest...
... I have yet to find a scanner and OCR program that is simple and user friendly!

Oh, and if you want an old codger to try your development, give me a growl... Redfin
