I am currently doing some work for a law firm that desperately wants to 
computerize.  The senior partner was talking to some one who told him that 
there was a system to scan in documents/forms, fill them out, and then print
them out.  Is there such a hardware/software set-up?  If so, they could greatly
minimize the amount of paper forms they have to store and would minimize the 
need to use that ancient technology known as the typewriter :).

Thanks,
Eric Bennett

P.S.  Please reply by mail as I can't keep up with this group as well as others.
