Mandy, From your description of what you want from a scanner/OCR programme, I feel sure that the Limited Edition of Omnipage, that comes bundled with many scanners is all you need. I used this version for many years to read bills, letters and the odd article. It was only when I needed to scan data into a data base that I upgraded. Keep reading the 'help' menu and asking questions, the LE version is quite workable for the VI.

It might also help if you spelled it correctly.

There is only one l in Kurzweil.

I've just looked in Google for Kurzweill EBay is mentioned
as always:
is it a particular model we would have to look for?

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.

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.

Hi Mandy,

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:
