Will Preview command a scan from any scanner? ie can this be made a one command operation where any document on a scanner will automatically scan, go to preview, ocr and then go to text edit? Vickie Weir

OK folks time to try out an idea on everyone.

What I'm thinking of is a program I'm going to call iOCR. This program will take the front most document of Preview and run OCR on it and then open the resulting text in TextEdit. I'm thinking of using Googles open source OCR which I have working on a Mac. It seems to do a good job and can deal with upside down pages.

This will likely be an Intel, Leopard only thing at first.

So useful or not?
