From their web site:
“If you want to recognize a document, ScanPapyrus allows you to use an OCR cloud service from the company ABBYY (http://www.abbyy.com). This company’s recognition algorithms have been developed for years and are perhaps the best in the world. They rarely make mistakes during recognition, retain as much formatting as possible and recognition does not take much time.
You will need an Internet connection to perform text recognition. Furthermore, access to the service is not free of charge by ABBYY. However, you can get 500 free pages at the first time you sign up on the recognition service.”
Program description itself is a bit misleading, but it has other useful features.
There are free open source OCR programs available.
