Apparently the scan under MacOS (and probably under Windows)

We're probably stuck with Tesseract, which — while it's much better than it used to be — is now optimized for mass "good enough" recognition of simple pages. Omnipage dropped its Linux support years ago, and Abbyy Finereader's Linux support is only for ($$$) enterprise. Adobe's now the monster of OCR, but of course it's only built into its rented Acrobat Pro platform.

It's a shame that Linux users don't get the nice things that come with hardware that we buy. The page remapping and finger editing-out sound very handy.
