Nick, What version of ABBY are you using? I have seen much out there about ABBY FineReader Express. I am sort of interested in which one you have as PDFPen is using a version of ABBY itself but you seem to be getting better results with a stand alone version.
Anyway, you may want to take a look at this URL. A little different approach but it works for this guy. http://jablack.blogspot.com/2013/02/paperless-office-using-finereader.html Keith On Mar 17, 2014, at 6:59 AM, Nicholas Parsons <mr.nicholas.pars...@gmail.com> wrote: > Thanks, Keith, I now have it working well with Hazel and PDFPen Pro, though I > find that PDFPen's results are definitely not as good as ABBYY FineReader's, > especially for languages which PDFPen does not support.
