I have an existing application using SQL 2000 that works
with scanned images of documents. I want to add the
ability to OCR the images and store the recognized words
in SQL to utilize FTS against them.

How do I calculate the storage requirements for the
additional table to hold the recognized words and the
storage space for the FT Catalog?

That depends on how much text you have in your images and
how much your tiff is compressed.

Note that the Tiff iFilter that ships with Office XP can
be used to natively search and index tiff's stored in the
image column with the document column type of tif.
