Re: Get a Scanner to work in a different O.S. Was: Re: Abby Finer Reading. Was: Re: Reading PDF files on the mac

The workaround for this is to try using VueScan which can interface 
between your scanner and Abbey Finereader.
Unfortunately   even this solution did not work for me as my scanner was 
not even supported on VueScan.

However look at
http://www.hamrick.com/

There is a trial version I think which would definitely tell you whether 
VueScan will be able to see your scanner on the Mac.

Ciao Gena and thanks for your answer.
Yes, officially they don't list Mac OS  among the supported O.S.
It's the first time I face such problem and onestly I don't know how 
to solve it.


Should I search for drivers by using my scanner's name and MAC OSX?

How do you fix this issue or, what do you suggest me to try?

Many many thanks.
Gabriel.

 Hello Gabriel,
 
 Most scanners are made to work from a twain driver so check out the twain 
 sane interface. It’s not as nice as the GUI tools but a little of reading 
 might just keep familiar hardware going. From memory it involved installing 
 about 5 little programs within the terminal. But that was some years ago for 
 a different scanner. Take a look at this:

 Good luck.
