Re: ABBYY fine reader express looking good

I wish Abbyy would make a Mac version like the Windows one, but I also wish 
that my BookEdge scanner had a Mac driver. Phil, I think you're lucky to have 
found a scanner that works without the need for 2 apps. My husband has a Cannon 
and another one that I can't remember, some kind of all in one. And when he 
tried Abbyy, he got nowhere with it. He's sighted.

when I bought the scanner it came bundled with ABbY Fine reader Sprint for PC. 
So odds were good it would work on the Mac side to

ABBYY fine reader express looking good

2013-08-19 Thread Phil Halton
Just purchased fine reader express tonight for $49.99 (deal good until August 
25). It works really well with my Epson Perfection V33/330 flatbed scanner. It 
recognizes the scanner and I can scan documents from within the app, and don't 
have to use ImageCapture or another app to create scans.
Strange though, the preferences are grayed out in the menu. I guess because its 
the express version, there aren't any preferences to set? 
I haven't tried it yet, but I think it might be possible to scan multiple pages 
from within the app. When I scanned a test page, I was given the option to 
continue scanning, and I assume that meant scan more pages - I'll try it 
tomorrow.
'
Just wanted to give the app a thumbs up and let you all know the app is on sale 
for half off, ($49.99), and I think its worth the money.

hey,
i have been using this app and yes the prefs are grayed out.
you can't do batch conversion of PDFs with the express version witch makes me 
very mad.
i wish they would make a pro version for mac like the one on windows witch is 
fantastic.
