Subject: Re: [FRIAM] scanning an old manuscript

 

I've been reading a lot of ebooks from the library, and I'm noticing that some 
OCR errors keep slipping through.  A character in the book I'm just now reading 
is rendered as Former and Fortner on facing pages.  So don't expect even good 
OCR to leave you with nothing left to proof read.

Dear Friammers, 

 

I have a 400 page type script, double sided that I would like to scan, and then 
edit.  Fedex will scan it for a bit over 100 dollars.  They will put it into a 
word file for free, after that.  No guarantees.    Does anybody know of a 
better deal in Santa Fe, or if we mailed the type script off anywhere?  The 
quality of the OCR software is my most urgent concern.  Are there some REALLY 
GOOD ONES?  Would it be cheaper for me to buy the software myself?  

 

Lemme know, 

 

Nick
