Re: Recommendations of OCR software.

[Rob Davies]

Morning,

Adobe Acrobat works a treat.
I.R.I.S software produces Readiris version 12 being current, cost? 
Included with quite a few scanners, or download.

Thank you for that Merv.

I had a quick look there after I hit upgrade button on my 'lite version' but 
only gave Window's versions.
I shall dig a bit deeper on the site.

Apple website had PDF OCR X Pro version for AU $28 - yay $AU vs $US.$29

I just downloaded that to try too.

Hi everyone,

I would like to scan and OCR pages of text, including columns (usually a 
feature of better software), using a Brother MFC, or any scanner really. 
Currently using OSX 10.6.7.

I have VueScan (full version) and Escan Assist as scanner software.

I don't mind paying for the OCR software.

Any recommendations or ones to avoid?

Thank you for your thoughts,

Brian

Recommendations of OCR software.

[Brian Risbey]

Hi everyone,

I would like to scan and OCR pages of text, including columns (usually a 
feature of better software), using a Brother MFC, or any scanner really. 
Currently using OSX 10.6.7.

I have VueScan (full version) and Escan Assist as scanner software.

I don't mind paying for the OCR software.

Any recommendations or ones to avoid?

Thank you for your thoughts,

Brian
