Agreed. FineReader works well on the Mac. But its not moral to buy products biult in China either. Where to draw the line?

I’ve had good experiences with ABBYY FineReader in a Microsoft environment, and I’ve read positive comments about the Mac version.

However, the company is based in Russia, and it may be subject to sanctions, not to mention the moral issues involved given the current geopolitical situation. I personally wouldn’t be comfortable purchasing from them right now.

*Subject: *To Choose, To Chose - OCR App

Hi All (Once Again),

I’ve decided to install an OCR app on my Mac Mini, but in searching for such software via “App Store” I find a quite confusing list of choices. I realize such preferences are highly subjective propositions, but I certainly would appreciate suggestions as to which OCR app will “Fill the BBill.”

Of course, anyone offering a suggestion will want to know what my criteria is, suffice it to say my top criterion is accuracy.  Beyond that, cost is certainly a prominent consideration.  I’ll put it this way, if an extremely accurate OCR app runs around $50 I’m OK with that. I do not want a $3.00 app that is lacking accuracy.

And one final consideration, I want to be able to link the app to readily open various image files (JPG, IMG, etc).

Thanks in advance!
