Hi Renette, You wrote: [RB] >Is anybody using Abby Fine Reader with Jaws? [ChD] I'm currently using FineReader 7.0 with jaws 6.20. I started with FineReader 4.5 and jaws 3.2. I also could successfully run the 8.0 Try&Buy version with no need to update my jaws. [RB] >How compatible is this combination? [ChD] This software always was really jaws-friendly. No script needed and no major issue, except the obvious case of using the pattern editor. However, some sighted person may use it for you in order to train FineReader on some specific material, (cash tickets from your favorite supermarket). Then, you'll be able to use these additional patterns for later recognition of some material of the same type. Sorry, I can't compare FineReader with Openbook since I never used the last. HTH, Have a nice day.
