Well I must say though I love Kurzweil's editing features, I'm
sticking to finereader for scanning. I just don't understand this. But
following is an example of the cover of Sea Star, (I plan to replace
the fair copy in the collection), and this was scanned with Kurzweil,
finereader 7, optimized. Before it was optimized, it said the page was
blank. Once optimized, this is what I got:

Okay now, here is the cover again using my Finereader 6 with only the
settings that I always use, no adjusting or anything:

Misty is leaving them!

it's almost too hard to see her go. What will they do without Misty?

I just don't get it. How is it that the scan in Finereader 6 comes out
better than using Finereader 7 within Kurzweil? Just doesn't make
sense to me.
