I've only used the bundle-ware version of OmniPage and so can't speak 
from experience with the current Pro version, but the publisher's 
data sheet for it specifically claims:

"Recognize Multiple Languages
OmniPage Pro 14 recognizes 119 different
languages and even recognizes multiple
languages on the same page!"

Greek is one of the languages listed, but whether it extends to the 
polytonic variety or not isn't clear.
