Re: Step by step or tutorial on Abby Fine Reader
Thanks for the good info. Just one more question: Where is the help option? Also, the program asks if I want to register it? If I say yes, is there a way to find the serial number which I bet they ask for, without sighted assistance?

Re: Step by step or tutorial on Abby Fine Reader
Hello Juaanita, The Help menu is located in the Menu Bar. When I registered FineReader Pro on my Mac it was done through an accessible webpage and it did ask for the serial number, which on my system is available through the “About FineReader” pane.

Abby Fine Reader
Dear listers, I understand this programme is well regarded in our community. Their web site is, however, hard to use to get info from. I am looking at hardware to go with this software.

Re: Abby Fine Reader
Hello Ian, I’m not sure what hardware ABBYY recommends, but I've been using a Canon PIXMA MX922 MFP and have had no issues using it in conjunction with ABBYY FineReader Pro. I connect my Mac and other computing devices via Wi-Fi and am able to scan from the flatbed and the ADF. The ADF’s duplex function also works fine. On the downside, this model Canon does not provide a very accessible hardware interface and will likely require sighted assistance during initial setup.

Re: abby fine reader on sale until the end of this month
Maybe it is one of these pages that it looks like nothing happened but the stuff is at the bottom of the page. It is from their website so maybe contact them and see if you can get the what ever you need. Good luck.
