First, omnipage pro is the most accurate OCR I have used and I would
propably find it 99%. Second, it knows exactly what orientation you
have and corrects it. third, the Mac OSX contains most of the drivers
for scanners and printers and your HP scanner just will work. mine
do. Vickie Weir

Hello. I'm thinking about purchasing Omni Page for my Mac Mini and I
have a few questions. First, from searching on the web, it seems like
the only version of Omni Page available is the professional version
which is over $400. I know I could purchase the Canon Lide 60 scanner
and get it cheaper, but it seems like people on this list were having
trouble installing that scanner driver. The PC version of Omni Page
is supposed to be 99% accurate. Is the mac version of Omni Page just
as accurate? What happens if you have a page upside down? PC
Programs such as OpenBook tell you if the page is upside down. There
doesn't seem to be a mac driver on the CD that came with my HP
Scanjet scanner. However, when I plug the scanner into the USB port
on my Mac Mini, it is shown in System profiler under USB as a HP
Scanjet. Does this mean that OSX supports this scanner? I figured it
did, but I wanted to make sure before I spent money on Omni Page.
Thanks.
