I know what you mean about pressing the lid down to flatten the pages of a book. I use to keep a five pound weight handy and place it on the lid to save me the arm strain. But, I suppose picking up and placing the weight for each turn of the page could also get tiresome. On Dec 6, 2013, at

Hi. I experience the new finereader as very accessible. If you have a supported scanner, you can scan directly from a supported scanner without vuescan, this is a major step forward. There could be unlabled buttons but the helptags works, but most of the buttons are labled correct. In my

Hi. You can scan multipage documents directly from finereader pro, and you can convert to a wide range of formats, and the quality is exelent. You can also split double sided scannings automatic, and it works quite good. Best regards Annie. Den 06 Dec 2013 kl. 17:04 skrev Cheryl Homiak

You know, Epson scanners are supported and work quite well in my opinion. Also, you can pick one up for around $120 or so. There are many other supported and cheap scanners that will do a good job. Basically any scanner that apple sells will work for you. On Dec 6, 2013, at 10:44 AM, Mary

Hi Phil, Yes, I know that a lot of scanners are supported. But when I scan a book on a flat-bed the old-fashioned way, i.e. pressing the book down so as to get a good view of both pages, I pay for it with all kinds of muscle pain in the shoulders and arms. Too much typing for too many years and
