100% accuracy is difficult to achieve, but close approximation is what most software strive for. Some OCR software also puts it through a spell checker to “guess” unrecognized words.

OCR software works by analyzing a document and comparing it with fonts stored in its database and/or by noting features typical to characters.

Optical character recognition (OCR) is a system of converting scanned printed/handwritten image files into its machine readable text format. Anyway- that is how we patronize and support open community -freedom for all digital applications(my own term). Hence using Open source software as what I have said awhile ago, requires a lot of tweaking before we avail it by our own convenience.
