I have been using XSane to scan text pages from Libre Office Writer and from magazines. However, it will not let me save them as text files orly image files.  I get a message that says the "gocr" command is not available.  

Can you help me?

You either have to install the gocr package (using dnf, apt-get, or
whatever) that does the optical character recognition, or you have to go
into Preferences->Setup->OCR and specify whatever OCR package you're using.
