Even the circa-1992, Win16, Caere OmniPage 2.11 I have can handle
batch-processing an indefinite number of files.

In the usual "you'll pay to get what you really want" mode of
the software industry, I would guess that there are some very
nice five- and six-figure document processing systems that
would do the job.
