Recently, PC magazine did a comparison between OmniPage 14 pro and AbbyFinereader Corporate ( I think it was the Corporate edition, it's the equivalent to the OmniPage 14 pro). They liked the OmniPage 12 pro better, and gave it slightly higher marks. Now I've been working on a project which converts hundreds of pages of PDF tables to Excel at a time, and in my testing of both products I have found the AbbyFinereader program did a much better job. On average, with the OmniPage 14 pro, every 1 out of 6 pages had an error, whereas the AbbyFinereader only had an error on average for every 1 out of 28 pages. With the AbbyFinereader ( http://www.abbyy.com/ ) you can download a fully functional copy for testing, whereas the download from http://www.scansoft.com for the Omnipage product, has limited capabilities.

Very accurate and full featured. But, if you already have Acrobat 6 and don't need the searchable text to be the actual text viewed on the page, then just use 'paper capture' as already suggested. It works and it's free! ~James __________________________________________________________________ From: Ari Gross For conversion from TIFF to OCR (searchable) PDF with compression 5x-10x smaller than TIFF, check out http://www.cvisiontech.com/cvistapdf.html To change your subscription: http://www.pdfzone.com/discussions/lists-pdf.html To change your subscription: http://www.pdfzone.com/discussions/lists-pdf.html
