The technology you are looking for is called "OCR", or "Optical Character Recognition".

Check out this codeproject entry:

It may help.

Alternatively, this google search should take you a fair amount of the way.

I've got no solution, but got this from a Google hit.

Your question might be better answered if you augmented it with more information. I.e. Why do you want to do this? What image types are you wanting to read?

Give us a background of the requirements, or even motivation. You'll be more likely to get an informed answer.
