Also, if you ahve hard copies (letters) see if your
scanner has OCR, which scans a page, and tries to match
of the image and convert it to text. If you want the
letters to be like pictures, try changing the scanner
settings, so it scans the size of the paper you are
using. I would use Microsoft Word, as WordPad and
NotePad are richtext (don't allow pictures, except for
the all important ":-)"s!).
