Hello Chris, VueScan should work well with your scanner. I have a Cannon MP170 which I use with VueScan. However, I'm not sure whether your scanner has an up-to-date driver. I have to use the 32-bit version of VueScan with my MP170, but can use the 64-bit version with my CAnnon Lide 700F portable scanner.
VueScan does OCR, but not very well. I use ABBYY FineReader Express for Mac to do the OCR. Cheers, Anne On 11 Jan 2011, at 18:00, Chris Moore wrote: > I am a bit new to scanning on the Mac.
