Hi all. I have been using finereader on my windows for a lot of years. Now I have tried out readIris too. To me it seems as if it is a bit defferent, if finereader or readIris does the best job. But I can tell you, that there is no limitation on how many pages finereader can recognize. I would love to try it out on my mac.
