Greetings... this is slightly OT, so please respond offlist and I'll
summarize for the list later.

I'm looking to identify a server-based, production-quality tool that will
OCR a scanned image, and produce a searchable PDF.

Scenario: We have a web app that includes a document repository. We want the
following workflow::

1. Server accepts scanned images from remote clients (.TIFF or image-only
PDF), possibly through a TWAIN Acquire process.
2. Server OCRs the image and creates a searchable PDF.

It appears that Acrobat Capture does this locally, but I'm looking for
server-based tools to accomplish the same workflow.

Any ideas?
