Ok, and I didn't know demo copies of RI came with scanners. Interesting, but my Canoscan Lite 60 came with the SE of OP and that my friend was ugly to work with. I probably should see what the version is for the SE I got as compared to what the version is as an upgrade. I looked at the docs for OP SE that came with the scanner and the docs say OP Pro X, but perhaps Pro X is what it has always been called for the Mac.

Yes you can get a demo copy, but the site is a little tricky to work with. I was able to get it, but honestly can recall how. I'll check and if I can get it, I'll e-mail it to you if you'd like or maybe someone else will have an answer so you can get it directly.

Were you able to get a demo of Read Iris or did you just have to buy it and hope it worked? I went to the web site for Read Iris and I couldn't figure out how to download the demo. When I went to download a trial version, only the upgrade option was available.
Thanks.

Thanks Pete. I am currently using Read Iris which as far as I can tell is doing a good job, but there are some features in Omni Page I'm interested in. I might consider trying it seeing as how they have a 30-day return policy so at least if it really is a drag, I can return it and no hard feelings.grin

Hey Scott,

I have used OmniPage. so far i have had pretty good luck with it. you do have to work with it some, by that i mean you have to select the zones and the format of the zones, but even that is not to hard to do. i wish some one would write some ocr software that would read my mind and do exactly what i want it to do without any work on my part, but maybe some day!!! i guess the only complaint that i have with it so far is that i am just to lazy.

please feel free to ask any questions, don't know if i will have the answers but i will try.

Pete
