Hi, I am not doubting that readiris is very reliable and I indeed wont use it on the mac. I just wonder if it is as good (and then i mean with text recognition( as omnipage 16 pro for the pc. Yes I know its a heavy, clunky sometimes unstable piece of software but it works great for what i use it, which is scanning printed books (no handwriting) and then directly exporting them to a text file without proofreading it first. As long as the scanned input is clear and nobody has written in the book with a pencil or something the text is nearly perfect. Maybe I will try out readiris when I have my mac but I am prepared to keep using windows (wither on another machine or as dual boot/vmware option) if omnipage turn sout to be better. Do you know if readires is able to scan/ocr multiple pages at once/export them all to one file (i have a sheetfeeder that can scan approximately 25 pages at once) I am also not sure if the fact that I can scan both sides of a page is built-in to my scanner (it does this mechanically) or if i have to rely on the software to tell it to do this. thanks for the info, Greetings, Anouk, ----- Original Message ----- From: "Anne Robertson" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, July 19, 2009 5:41 PM Subject: Re: introduction/noob questions(longish)
