OCR tool with japanese characters

		I'm wondering if a tool like Omnipage pro is able to recognize japanese characters. Can someone give me an advice on how to move a scan of a japanese documentation to a word document ? And also which OCR supports japanese chars.

		There's also kanjiocr and one by brother I think called Japanese OCR(it's my personal favorite, although it's in jap, and I'm not sure what it costs to buy the full version). As always, experiment with a few of them(you can get trial versions of the two I mentioned) and buy the one you like. Cyber Warrior X
