Ray - not sure where you get alt control 5 from, others that have been using
the webvisum add on, say the key stroke is control 6; i can't confirm or
otherwise, as I haven't had any success with it myself! -

The Webvisum service offers capture of images - text as graphics not
capturing graphical service validations is what I'm talking about here. You
supposedly can focus on an image and then alt-control-5 to get an OCR of it.
So, here's a site to try it on:
http://www.blackcountrypodcasting.com/
This is a truly dreadful site access-wise but I do use it to get the podcast
that we've got permision to use parts of in our local talking newspaper. Most
of what you see on this and other pages is a text image, and you wouldn't know
the text is there if you cannot see at all.
I've had no luck with Webvisum recognizing this, but have I mis-understood
the control-alt-5 function, or does it simply not work on this site?
So, perhaps others can have a go.
Thanks.
Ray.
