OCR - Optical Character Recognition in Google Docs

Google Drive and OCR.  I just learned about this little feature from Leslie Fisher.  She is amazing and always has a new trick she has learned about and shares out.

OCR or Optical Character Recognition is a technology which enables you to convert different types of documents, such as scanned paper docs, PDFs, and images into editable data.

So, I tried this, I opened my Google Drive app, took a picture which is automatically uploaded. Now watch the video for the rest of the instructions!  Worked like a charm!
