Hi Larry,
I haven't used Prizmo or Text Grabber for rounded labels, but I find that
another fantastic app and one I use almost more than Tap Tap See now is
Talking Goggles. It has a video mode which means it continuously recognizes
things as you move it and it will do short bits of OCR. I have
As has been mentioned in previous posts it is suggested that you get both text
grabber and prizmo.

Hi Sandra.
Is this scanning done with textgrabber or prizmo.
I have been scanning books for many years, and I can tell that cookbooks are
the most difficult books to get a sensible result from. I am really impressed
that you can get such results with a IPhone and standscan.
Best regards

In the end, Prizmo took the prize! Text Grabber did well, but Prizmo dealt

Hi Sandy,
I am not sure that my comment will be off topic, but here goes. Way back when I
was in grad school, I would have a book that would not scan very well with
either OCR products. I would pull the binding off so I could lie a single
page flat down on the flatbed scanner to get the

Hi Eileen,
You are, of course, right! Dismembering books is sometimes the only way to
go, even when using the full Flat-Bed plus PC option, but if we can manage to
scan without the destruction, then so much the better! One way to scan from a
new paperback without causing too much damage to
Hi Sandy.
It was very good, I guessed that it was prizmo that has made such a good result.
I can tell a funny thing about scanning, a little offtopic, but interesting
too. I had a very difficult cookbook, and my finereader pro 11 for windows, did
not do very well, finereader 11 is one of the
