Can we get an OCR function (reconnaissance de caractères en français)
with GIMP ?
Unfortunately I have yet to find an open source or Free OCR program
that works reliably for me. The best I have used is Finereader
made by http://abbyy.com/ but it is commercial, and I think runs
only under Microsoft Windows, or at any rate is not supported under
any Free operating environment.
There is also gocr but this is much less effective.
