[bcab] Re: scanned pages displayed in vertical lines

John while I am not Roger I have OmniPage but I have also managed to obtain a 
copy of Adobie 8.0 Pro and it is fantastic.

  Roger,

  In your experience, is Omnipage pro superior to ABBYY?

  Hi John,



  I have experienced similar and started using omni page pro instead - this 
seems to have resolved the issue.

    Dear list friends,

    Sometimes scanned pages of printed books appear on the screen as a single 
vertical line of text. Jfw 10 reads the text normally, but when I press the up 
arrow, instead of a line I get a single letter. Moreover, JfW tells me there 
are new pages in rapid succession, so that there may be forty of these odd 
pages for a single page of printed text.

    I have tried to change this using the page set up, but this does not seem 
to work. My family tell me that the little thumb prints of the scanned pages as 
they appear on the screen appear normal, so the problem must lie in the OCR 
stage, or in the way Word displays the results.

     I am using Oprtic Book 3600 with ABBYY version 8 pro with office xp pro.

    Can anyone suggest the reason for this, and how I can prevent it?

    John
