Do you know if they charge a good deal for the upgrades? Maybe based on what you have stated, there hasn't been an upgrade, but I'll checked into the upgrade as it is now. I haven't been very successful as of yet in scanning anything with Omni Prox. I can't determine what the buttons are and the pop-up menus don't give any options which I suspect is the issue of being limited as you said.

I found the two to be about equal as to useability, however since I have used pro a lot, vice readiris, I am more used to it. As to lite, I am a little hazy at this point, not having used it for a few years, but as I recall it was much more limited and not as useful. For the cost of upgrading I would recommend doing so. Pro can be set up to be almost fully automatic, push button to start and thats all. It can control the scanner, do the ocr and put the result where ever you want it to go or, put it on the clipboard for you to paste somewhere or leave it on the screen for you to work it there. Of course it can be set up for all sorts of things but most of the time that is not necessary. I usually set it for multiple columns and to put the result into text edit. This way it will read either single or multiple columns and do its thing. I am told that they are going to release a universal binary version some time this summer. Pro right now is about three or four years old but runs well on either the power pc or the intel mac. Vickie Weir
