The Canon scanner worked fine till one day it started freezing up when I tried to add the second page to the file. So, I bought a new Epson CX 7400 All in One.
Now the problem is I can't copy and paste the pdf file into Open Office writer in order to edit it.

Is there anyone on this list who scans documents and then saves the file as text in open office and are able to edit the document? What sort of software did you have to buy? What type of scanner did you have to buy? I am willing to buy whatever I need.
