	No , I don't. But if you like to send it to me, I'll be happy to have a look. Sometimes a second pair of eyes can help.

Member Since: December 2004 Posts: 22 Send Message	I have an old will from the 1800's in old style writing. Too difficult to read. Saved in jpeg format. Does anyone know of a utility or a web site where I can get it OCR'd into readable text?
