    Check out Irfanview. It may have a command line converter you can run from VBA

    Post a workbook with sample data and layout if you want a quicker solution.

    Irfanview can do the trick, or ImageMagic which is freeware and has an activex component. My guess is you would be using MODI to gather 'text' from the bmps you create, and you need the translation to Tif to handle multiple pages. If so you might want to google for eymbcrdcmd.exe - which can translate a tif into XML. I used this to read/translate bar codes and other text from efaxes for contracts sent as PDF.

    P.S. If you have Office 2007 or the Beta or 2010 check out OneNote to handle your OCR.
