Most of the visual impairment solutions do not prioritise format especially because this can have negative consequences regarding readability. However, saving outside their special format into say MS Word will get you some way there. Something like FineReader or OmniPage are your best bet though as they will prioritise reproduction of original format. Regards.

A lot of the other scanning OCR software seems to reformat the document and changes the layout.
