Optical Character Recognition
The scanning software you are looking for is something called Optical Character Recognition, or OCR.

I do not know of any freeware/shareware programs that do OCR.

There are several commercial apps available for OS9.

There is one commercial app available for OS X:

OmniPage Pro for OS X

Hope this helps,
