First, does it exist?
If so, for which scanners?
Finally is O.C.R. possible using the software with the correct hardware
under linux?

Hello Jude,

Yes, it does exist. I use hpscanpbm for my HP ScanJet IIcx.

I've tried xocr several times, but I never got anything readable out
of it. I'm still looking for ocr under Linux myself.

    Regards,
    
       Jos.
