Notes:

OCR can be done on some printed books at an additional charge. It is not 100% effective with old books that have inconsistent or small type face, but can approach 98% perfect for a good clear type face, even if the book is very old.

The best way of presenting an old book with OCR is to allow the reader to see the original book's pages (the scanned images), but to make them searchable. Imagine having the book's page on screen on your computer, but with a hidden page of text behind it. The search looks for a word, or even part of a word or a phrase on that hidden text, and then shines a highlight through to the surface where those words appear on the real page. This technique is called "text under image"
