Hi Jim

To my knowledge, there is only one version of Abbyy FineReader for Mac, which 
is ABBYY FineReader Express.  The name is perhaps misleading, but that's how it 
is I believe.  You might also want to consider VueScan which is a very good OCR 
utility these days.  DocuScan+ is really quite basic and relies on cloud 
technology which I know is a matter of deep concern to some, and I totally 
understand that.  For confidential documents mandatorily storing them in the 
cloud, especially when one doesn't know who has access to them and who has 
access to the server itself is something which I know some find extremely 
unpalatable and I totally understand and agree with that disquiet.  FineReader 
Express and VueScan used to work well in tandem actually, and perhaps that is 
still the case.  I am sure Anne would be in a good position to answer that as I 
know she has used that combination of OCR extensively.

Just a few comments for whatever they are worth.  Oh yes, and I believe you can 
now get a version of Kurzweil for Mac, if you care to go that route.  How it 
works, I don't know.  But I believe Bryan had something to say on list a short 
time ago on that subject.  You might want to check the list archives.

I have a client who requires fairly heavy scanning/OCR capabilities.  Docuscan 
Plus does not appear to be an option, and ABBY Fine Reader Express appears to 
be quite cumbersome. Are there any other options?  Does the full version of 
Abby Fine Reader provide a better solution?
