I don't know how relevant this comment might be, but based on lots of experience scanning with an application that offers a choice of ocr engine, Fine Reader and Omnipage, I have found that there are definitely occasions that one engine does better than the other, and this may change with the t

Richard, I would check the alignment of your iPhone against the edge of the box. Those look like skew errors for Text Grabber. Text Grabber is almost not at all forgiving for skew whilst Prizmo gives some skew forgiveness. Note: skew is tilt of text off the 90 degrees horizontal and vertical pla

Hi Richard, Don't give up on TG yet! You have to have all your settings right. So, as Esther says: the right recognition language (by the way, i had mine inadvertently set to Italian so I too got some strange sounding results for a while there). No cropping and, a suggestion, don't save ima

Hi Richard, Out of curiosity, did you set the recognition language for TextGrabber to English under settings before you ran your scan? This option is at the start of the Settings screen. Just a first thought based on my experience with using OCR programs in multiple languages. And even with Priz
