2% error rate is generally what I have heard and experienced, I have got close to 99% accuracy with some software though.

It really varies on the software but, from what I've read from research
n a typical text page of 2000 characters, conventional OCR, on average,
would generate 40 errors.

Subject: OCR accuracy
Hello All,
I was asked a trick question today: How accurate is optical character
recognition? I wondering how accurate is OCR software/scanning that you
are running in your records shops? What accuracy percentage are you
committing to/ promising users?
Cheers,
Melissa
