Subject: [CODE4LIB] OCR recommendations?

Greetings,

Might anyone have some recommendations on good OCR software that is either
relatively cheap or free? We're looking to OCR some files for a digital
collection (platform still to be determined...) and wonder if there's a
more robust tool than Acrobat Pro that won't cost an arm and a leg.

Many thanks in advance for your expertise!

Cheers,
Rachel
