The OCR Dream

Abstract

For many years the philosophy of machines reading data from paper into computers, known as Optical Character Recognition or OCR, has been regarded by the unenlightened as a dream which will be wonderful when it happens. OCR has, unfortunately, been an insufficiently publicized reality for 25 years.
