It would be powerful if you could create a custom OCR engine, for any language.

And if you have make sure that the language you are trying to read is available with Microsoft Document Imaging.
eg if you want recognize German language text, make sure you have support for it

I get this error message :

The error message is ActiveX component can’t create object

Is it proper string image?

Or, confirm your available language by executing

[MS Office > MS Office Tools > MS Office Document Imaging]

and selecting [Tools > Options > OCR tab > OCR Language]

MS Office Document Imaging is installed with my office XP.

Document imaging version is 1.03.2349.1 what is your office version ?

Thanks
