  3) What I expected to happen was the .tiff file I scanned via a HP
  5610v All-In-One Printer/Scanner using the xsane GUI, became text
  searchable.

  4)  Instead, when I entered the desired command as per the GNU Ocrad
  website:

  http://www.gnu.org/software/ocrad/manual/ocrad_manual.html#Image-
  Format-Conversion

  I got the following:

  tifftopnm test-0002.tiff | ocrad
  tifftopnm: don't know how to handle PHOTOMETRIC_YCBCR
  ocrad: end-of-file reading pnm file.
