Scan and convert text to Word?

I'm no expert on it but if you carefully set up to photo the pages you can insert the pages as photos into documents, and no reason you cannot produce hi enough rez, clear enough, and crop / edit them to size etc that is you would not have to put the entire page in, or you could crop "let's say" you had a full page of two columns of text.......if you wanted you could make 4 photos out of the two colums, divided the colums in halve so you can have larger text, etc
