If you scan a text (Such as a MS Word DoC) image, can you edit the text on your computer?

If you scan a MS Word Doc as an image, you can't edit the text on your computer because you took a photograph (think PhotoCopy) of it, probably as a ".jpg".

OCR, as stated above, is what you need to learn HOW to do. OCR attempts to read the text and create a M$-Word document file. You will have to proof read it and correct any "bad guesses" (typos) to ensure it is accurate.

The full instructions are in your Scanner, or All-In-One printer, User manual.

No, you have to do what they call OCR (optical character recognition) on the image. Most scanners come with free OCR software, just install it from the CD that came with the scanner.

I understand your issue, and my answer is Yes.
Ok! I will explain how to edit that doccument with a software. That software is available in Coreldraw suit11 in second cd. There will a software name called OCR(Optical Charecter Recognisation.
