Good Day: 

        I am talking about Prismo. Admittedly, as I have stated before, I 
didn't do too much with it, and I only used the Mac app, but when I, for 
instance, tried to recognize a scanned PDF of a book with the two solutions, 
Abby Fine Reader gave a better result. I am considering trying the iPhone 
version of Prismo, but that is my opinion at present.
