I had OmniPage Pro oh so many years ago, and liked it but never updated it,
since I really didn't use it much, and now it's no longer compatible with my
computer. This was version 6, and somewhere I think I have version 9. So I'm
looking around for a cheap but good OCR program.

I'm currently using the Microsoft Document scanning that came with MS
Office. It's not bad, but hoping to find something better and easier. I'm
currently using an epson scanner/printer/fax but have been reading up on the
OpticBook. That's on my list for sure!

BTW, I have to delete your link at the bottom, I send my emails out through
Charter, and with that link, it labels it as spam and won't send it out.
