It's been a while since I used it. is help any help? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Søren Jensen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "General discussions on all topics relating to the use of Mac OS X by theblind" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, May 05, 2008 11:01 AM Subject: Re: Readiris
I can't find acquire from the menu. When I press command o, it opens a "open dialog", where I can choose to open a file. I'll check hps website for informations about a driver for my scanner. I'll write back if I don't find anything. I'm just wandering why I can't find any acquire buttons in the software. I have checked all menus, looked in the toolbar and tried all unlabled buttons, but I can't find it. Does the program works in different ways if you don't have any drivers installed? I'm not sure, but I think I'm using ReadIris version 11.5. How do I check which version I have?
