They seem to want to help. All is not hopeless, and as far as k1000
goes, if you're spending your own money then I would get used to
something like Vuescan or Readiris.

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 spending "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
