When scanners first came out I heard that one could scan text, then edit it with a word processor. Comments please..... Is this possible? Thanks - BA

You betcha!! To my knowledge, nearly all scanners come with software that will do the job. Like ALL software, some is better than others. I have two older programs that were designed to scan text and convert to MS Word, but the HP software that came with my 4570 works just fine. For some reason all three programs have the most trouble with newsprint, especially older clippings.
