Urgent: Free OCR software

[ponder]

Anybody know of free OCR software, need to scan a document quickly and convert to normal text.

Have a HP Officejet 6313 but the software from HP does not seem to include an OCR app unless I'm looking in the wrong place.

Thanks.

Sorry no more rush. I should have looked for the documents first which are in a file but now I cannot find the file. *sigh*

In the interim I will have a look for the driver cd's as they apparently include RealIris but is not available via the HP download site, bit stupid if you ask me.

Use OCRconvert.com, its free and I've found it to be quite accurate with my PDF and Image files.
