Looking for OCR Development Libraries

I was wondering whether a library exists that is available in the
public domain or for a fee from a software house that have OCR
(Optical Character Recognition) routines for the MSDOS environment
that could be used to link in those capabilities into custom
designed software. I am aware of the Logitech S.A.P.I. (Scanner
Application Programmer Interface) package and the TWAIN Toolkit
for Windows. Both these packages are suitable only for the general
acquisition of raster data from hand scanners with no OCR routines.

Ideally this package would have the capabilities to link in with
the Borland C++ 3.1 Compiler in either C++ or ANSI C. Does such
a package exist?

Thanks for any help,

Gerry
