found this software thru google..
It recognised O, L and some other stuff.. but not accurate !! Interface also isnt dat appealing!!

download from here : http://www.download3000.com/download_5614.html

EDIT:It works too good with Black text on white background.. preferably with default fonts like arial, courier..etc..

This is the text i chose to select..


Then select "Native text select" or "native text/graphics select Window"


This was the selected text

@article{ aas95text,
author = "K. Aas and L. Eikvil and T. Andersen",
title = "Text Recognition from Grey Level Images Using Hidden {Markov} Models",
journal = "Lecture Notes in Computer Science",
volume = "970",
pages = "503--??",
year = "1995",
url = "citeseer.ist.psu.edu/aas95text.html" }
