Hi,
I agree with you about the OCR.
In Israel, I use ABBYY FineReader 11 professional edition because the OCR is
much better and I don't think that omnipage has Hebrew support.
So, JAWS 13 will not have Hebrew OCR but Baum uses FineReader and has
Hebrew.
But, because I don't like Baum and I love FS, I will be stuck for this
feature!
Adi.
Regards,
Adi.

The OCR thing is way cool. Especially when Errick read the DVD main menu
with it. Think about it. If JFW 13 when it does work with Win 8 doesn't
hook like NVDA and System Access do, it'll be
So much easyer still to watch a DVD on your own. Pluss you'll be using WMP
which is already easy to use some what as it is. This will only make it all
the more easier. Assuming JAWS works with out hooking to the Video that is.
See because since it does that WMP thinks JAWS wants to coppy the disk so
that's why one gets that diolauge about not being able to run the analogue
coppy protection thing. In short, If JAWS doesn't hook to the video in Win
8, and if the OCR can scan DVD menus like it did for Erick, watching movies
will be golden on the PC.

OCR feature is indeed an old yet a failed idea trying to be implemented
by Baum of Germany before in its screen reading product called Cobra.
Should Baum sue Freedom then?
:)
Let the joke aside, this is really a great move and as Mr. Mosen puts it
well, a "game changer" in screen reading technology. yet İ wanna pose a
big but about the choice of Freedom's Omnipage as its OCR engine that it
is not the best in the market, as FS guys also may know very well that
most of the blinds over the world having non-FreedomScientific options,
use ABBYY Fine reader which is the pinnacle of the OCR products in the
market as of today.
So, a perfect idea with a wrong choice of engin...
P.S: independent reviews juxtaposing the two engins mentioned above can
easily be found with a simple Google search.
