Hi all,Larry, if you want good OCR don't look at Freedom Scientific. They haven't upgraded OB in ages, and I suspect they aren't going to do so. If you want good OCR use Kurzie or Docuscan Plus. I don't think Docuscan Plus really is good for books, but it sure is good for reading all kinds of PDF files.

I own both and have used Kurzweil for many years but find that open book 9 renders excellent ocr results—often better than Kurzweil. That is what I thought freedom would say and that is very disappointing to those who invested theyr major chunk of technology bucks in an ocr package.

That is an extremely expensive solution though.

I had OpenBook 8 rather than 9, but I did have this problem. I contacted Freedom Scientific, and their answer was “There’s nothing to be done about that.” So my solution was to buy Kurzweil 1000 instead. I have not had this problem with Kurzweil.

Hello. I have attempted to scan several books for Bookshare using open book version 9 and they are being rejected because of no paragraph indicators. Has anyone experienced this issue and how did you solve it? Thanks.
