Need OCR recommendation

Yep. Note that this holds true even if you get a really, really good scan, and you use a really accurate commercial OCR engine.

Er, no. If the pages are black-and-white, you'd be better off scanning in black-and-white ("line art") at 300 DPI, and using TIFF G4 compression. An average 8.5x11" page in TIFF G4 at 300 DPI comes out under 100K, while the same image in JPEG is likely to be 200K or larger. And the JPEG will have artifacts, while the TIFF won't, because G4 is lossless while JPEG isn't.
No, it didn't. gocr is better than ocrad, but both are still a fair bit worse than commercial OCR engines from ~2001. Go to Message-IDs:
...the state of the art hasn't changed that much for these 2 programs; Gentoo's portage system still says ocrad 0.10 and gocr 0.39 are still the stable versions (but ocrad 0.15 and gocr 0.40 are available).
