I think that as far as the ultimate use of the product is concerned, this is one of the most important features. After all, if you are blind, you are blind and that is it! You need to be sure that the application is going to adjust the page orientation for you or else it is not much use. I'm fed up with stpending "hours" trying to do what sighted people do in a split second. I am happy to e-mail the designer of the application as long as long as I know his e-mail address.

With best wishes

Hello,
Regarding proper page orientation. Yes, that's exactly what the problem is. the best way is to use a sample page and try it till you get it right. This is one of the reasons why I decided to uninstall it. I thought that if I purchased the product that this feature would be available. That's why I wrote the author.

if the page has to be oriented correctly to be recognized, then how can a blind person gain maximum use out of it?

Hello,
I did email the author and he said that he might consider Auto Orientation for a future release.

As of now it can't do it. It looks like the main purpose of the program was for scanning photos. Well, you might, like I'm going to, mention to them that this would be a good thing for OCR scanning. Meanwhile the program is perfectly usable except for that.

Hello Listers,

I have just visited the vuescan page, and one of the fundamental questions I have failed to find an answer to is whether Vuescan can automatically orient a printed page or not. I was wondering whether any of you who have already experimented with it have got some experience on this aspect as well as scanning pages with columns and more than one page scanning? I mean does text get appended to the end of the already existing document as it is in Kurzweil?

Thanks, Simon
