In short PHP cannot perform OCR functions.

Why? PHP provides all requisite functions/features so if someone was sadistic enough and talented enough there's nothing to stop them writing

an OCR app using it.

Sure, but then the scanning device would have to be connected to the
server. I suppose you could open a socket and stream the information to
the server and then have PHP read and interpret the stream as it
arrives. See how complex this is becoming?

Maybe it's just me, but OCR and scanning are certainly related but are by no means dependant on each other. Is it becoming complex or are you over-complicating it?
