I wonder if the key to it is that I tell the ocr software to ignore all
fonts and formatting, but at the same time tell it that there is a mixed
page layout. Interestingly, the only things it seems to have troulbe with
are bank statements, phone bills etc but that's not a problem as I fget
those in braille, it just means I know what they are and can thus file
them away.
Cheers.
