PDFpen Scan+ does a great job of recognizing the text in your documents, including documents written in 18 different languages.

<p>
PDFpen Scan+ is a document scanning and optical character recognition (OCR) tool for your iOS devices that lets you scan documents, import images, and PDF files and perform OCR on those documents.
</p>
<p>
PDFpen Scan+ offers three ways of capturing images: You can use your iOS device’s built-in camera to take a picture of a document, you can import a PDF or image file from your photo library, or you can import an image from a WebDAV enabled file server or services such as
Dropbox,
Evernote, or
Box.
</p>
<p>
When you import a document PDFpen Scan+ attempts to detect the document’s edges so that it can be cropped appropriately. I found the app’s edge detecting capabilities to be extremely inaccurate, almost always capturing an area inside the actual text of the document.
