Mandy, I paid about £80 for Omnipage 15 Pro when it was on special offer last year, Kertzweil appears to sell in the USA for $1000 so I assume in the U.K. wil be over £600. O.K if you have an employer to pay the bills.

No, it's a software called Kurzweil 1000. Mandy wrote: I've just looked in Google for Kurzweill EBay is mentioned as always: is it a particular model we would have to look for? Mandy.

I suggest you use Kurzweill as it's got a lot more features than omni page, plus it's a speaking software meaning that no screen reader needs to be running to fully use Kurzweill. Another advantage is that it comes with a lot of reference tools, including dictionary/thesaurus, on-line encyclopaedias, and other tools. I hope this helps making your decision. mandy wrote: Thanks for the replies about this: our Omnipage is not a full version it isn't professional as it just came within our Cannon printer so the suggested solutions don't appear to work for us. Guess we'll just have to manage as it is. Do people have an opinion about which software is best for scanning? Cicero, Kersworld sorry don't know how to spell and don't know which other ones there are available. Mandy.

Hi Mandy, There's a tutorial on John Wilson's website. He's made them available free to anyone who wants to use them and there's a tutorial on there for Omnipage but not sure which version. The link is: http://web.onetel.com/~fromthekeyboard . Hope it helps.
