I was wondering what I need to scan text out of books and be able to manipulate (reformat, font change, layout etc)
I have Photoshop 7 and Word 2004 so I just need to buy a scanner and whatever else you all recommend.

You don't need a scanner with "OCR"

you just need any scanner. and OCR software.

The best is probably omnipage pro

search for it at versiontracker.com
