I have to admit I am guilty of a slight<g exaggeration with the "close to
100%".

I have been lucky a few times with HP PrecisionScan LTX but in general the
recognition does not approach 100% and clean-up is required.

Re. accuracy; are you speaking from experience or vendor claims? If
experience, I would love to know what you are using. I have yet to see
any OCR software that does not require extensive cleanup.

Are you scanning as Text using the OCR software that came with your scanner?

Depending upon the OCR software, you can get close to 100% accuracy.
