Re: [Blind-Computing] Scanning organizing bills

2011-12-21 Thread David Bundy
I have done some testing with one of the Neat systems (I don't recall which 
one, and the person who had it is on vacation) and my results with JAWS 10 were 
somewhat favorable.  It has been a year or so, so my memories are not as fresh 
as they could be.  As I recall, there were a couple of places where I had to 
label buttons and/or use the JAWS Cursor, but over-all, it worked reasonably 
well.

Hi,
I am using an HP all in one scanner with Abby Fine Reader or ReadIris 12.
I have never used the Neat Receipts scanner or Neat Desk scanner before, but I 
guess the accessibility all depends on the software that comes with it and also 
what OCR software that you use to scan the papers with.

 Hi All,



 Has anyone used either the NeatReceipts scanner or the
 NeatDesk scanner
 systems?  Are they products that you can achieve full access
 to with JAWS?
 Does anyone have other suggestions for moving personal,
 household  medical
 bills, mail and other pieces of paper to an electronic
 format for
 organization, storage and ease of access when you need the
 info?



 Thanks,

 Annette

December is Safer Toys and gift Month.  The South Carolina Commission for the 
Blind offer these tips when selecting toys for young kids: select toys 
appropriate for child's age, select toys that don't have sharp, projectile or 
protruding parts and check to make sure toys meet national safety requirements.

I do not want to use OpenBook or Kurzweil for this.  It would mean saving
each file twice and manually extracting the needed data for a spreadsheet or
database.

Thanks,
Annette

Ok, no problem. Guess I was not fully understanding what you
wanted to do. Hope you find a good solution

The NeatReceipt and Neat Desk scanners come with their own OCR software that
include a database and a way to import the captured data to various
spreadsheets and databases, including Excel and Outlook.  I am trying to
find out if anyone has tried to use JAWS with these products.
