Hi Jeffery,

            What does OCR stand for?

Since you brought up the topic of Open Book, I'll toss in my two cents.
Open Book was the first OCR program given to me and I've used it for
many years.  I never really liked it, however.  Since I was going to
spend the money for the latest upgrade, I decided to switch to Omni Page
Pro which has received great press.  At half the price it is far
superior to Open Book.  It allows you to select any or all of about   20
programs it will scan into including word and excel.  Now when I open
the file menu in either of those programs, one option I can select is
obtain text from Omni Page.  Select it and your page gets scanned and
the text appears in Word in the appropriate format.  It deals well with
columns, is fast and accurate.

 

Sorry that I didn't address your problem.

Sorry Admin!

I am posting this, because I think OPENBOOK as the same as JAWS is a
FREEDOM SCIENTIFIC Product, and someone on this list, might  help me.

 

Hello!, I am using JAWS 9.0 as a default screen reader, and OPENBOOK
7.0,   and HP Scanner 2400, to perform into readable many documents,
also Adobe Reader
8.1 is installed on my PC.
Two or three days ago, it was OK.  Since Yesterday I had to restore my S
O, to fix an error.
 And Openbook whenever I need to open a PDF file, give  me a mesage like
this, "sorry, Openbook cannot open this file, because there's not an
associate
program on your system", I am doing as I always did, select a file,
select type adobe portable document, but it can be solved.
Then I check, effectively, whenever I tried to open PDF file with Adobe
Reader, there weren't a program associated, ADOBE READER was reinstalled
on this
machine, then I did an install maintainance for OPENBOOK but the message
is still on, appears one only option, cancel.
 
What  may be wrong?
 
So I have a question, How can I check if Openbook recognize my scanner?.
thanks a lot in advance.
Best Regards.
 Esperanza Villafuerte
