To answer the other part of your question, it uses the Readit software for OCR.

It's like DPI. It may be more important for photos, but an unnecessary expense for text. Andy From: John Riehl [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, October 12, 2012 5:10 AM To: gwinfo Subject: question about new reading machine I thought the announcement about GW Micro's new stand-alone reading product was interesting -- I do have a couple of questions. a 5MP camera seems like a poor quality camera to get really good scanning results. Why was a camera with a higher MP amount chosen? Also, what OCR technology is being used to do the actual OCR processing? Thanks.
