Hello Dónal, ABBYY FineReader is definitely worth it. It's the best OCR for Mac and can handle three languages in one document. It's also really simple to use. Cheers, Anne On 18 Feb 2013, at 15:27, Dónal Fitzpatrick dfitz...@computing.dcu.ie wrote: HI all, THis is on sale on MacUpdate

Hello Dónal, You can now scan multiple pages into one file with ABBYY FineReader. However, if you have a lot to scan, it's quicker to use VueScan for the scanning part as it can be set to scan multiple pages automatically. With FineReader, you have to click the Resume button then switch

Hello Josh, You need a scanner or a very good camera for ABBYY FineReader or any other OCR program for the Mac unless you're getting image PDFs that need OCR. If you're looking for an OCR app for the iPhone, I'd strongly recommend Prizmo or Perfect OCR although other people also recommend Text

Hello Josh, Theoretically, the FaceTime camera can be used, but for a blind person to get a good image is really difficult, and considering how cheap a portable flatbed scanner is, it really isn't worth the hassle. Cheers, Anne On 19 Feb 2013, at 00:40, josh gregory joshkar...@gmail.com
