Hi Sandi. In fact you can use the mac and vuescan. The only thing I would say is that I seem to have some problems to get really good scannings with vuescan. I think I have been working with every single setting. Often page numbers are missing when using vuescan, that is no problem directly in finereader, sometimes I also have seen mising text. I can not explain why.
Best regards Annie.
