Hello Josh,
Theoretically, the FaceTime camera can be used, but for a blind person to get a
good image is really difficult, and considering how cheap a portable flatbed
scanner is, it really isn't worth the hassle.

Oh I see, so there's no app that could potentially use the FaceTime
camera? If I understand it right, the quality that comes from such a

Hello Josh,
You need a scanner or a very good camera for ABBYY FineReader or any other OCR
program for the Mac unless you're getting image PDFs that need OCR.

or Perfect OCR although other people also recommend Text
Hello Dónal,
You can now scan multiple pages into one file with ABBYY FineReader. However,
if you have a lot to scan, it's quicker to use VueScan for the scanning part as
it can be set to scan multiple pages automatically. With FineReader, you have
to click the Resume button then switch windows
How does something like that work… Through the FaceTime camera?

Hello Dónal,
ABBYY FineReader is definitely worth it. It's the best OCR for Mac and can
handle three languages in one document. It's also really simple to use.

HI all,
THis is on sale on MacUpdate today for $49. I've seen it before and been
tempted but never bothered. Is it worth it? Is there anything better?
Work are paying, so cost (for once) isn't an issue.

Hello Catherine,
Prizmo on the Mac is extremely difficult to use.
AbbYY FineReader Express is simple. If you have a scan of a page, or
