Hi Ray,
You could look at ABBYY FineReader Express.

Works on Mac OS X 10.4 PPC/Intel/10.5 PPC/Intel/10.6 Intel
I'm still on OS 10.5.8.
I've been using it on old newspaper scans and it works quite well,
it's the only OCR program I've used so i can't
compare it another.
Cheers
Brian

Do you have any recommendations for text-recognition software that

I need such an application to convert standard scanned images to
text files.
Currently I have OmniPage SE that came as a freebie when G5s were
top-of-the-wozza, but am getting ready for MacOS 10.7, which
apparently will no longer support PowerPC-only applications.
Unfortunately, OmniPage SE is a Power-PC only application. The
current OmniPage website has no information about any version of
OmniPage for MacOS 10. It seems that they now only support Widows.
I do realise that one solution would be to have two disk partitions;
one with MacOS 10.7, and one with MacOS 10.6, and booting to the
older one when I want to run legacy applications. However, it would
be nice to avoid such inefficiency.

Ray Forma
