Here's another thought: Having run the pages through Microsoft's scanning tools, it's easy enough to get text out (it does the OCR during the scan). So it's easy enough to get into word, but the format is all wrong. So the next question is: any quick and dirty way to import a word doc into InDesign and have it flow the text automatically? Somehow I'm thinking it's getting beyond what simple scripting and the rather outdated software I have available can handle. I guess there's always Omnipage. Do I really need the pro version? Heck, I'm still not even sure of the difference. Anyway, I'll keep sluggin' away to the tiffs and see if there's anything I can do with them :).
