Hi all,
Please excuse the dummy comments here, this is someone who has been
using an old Open Book in demo mode for years to read my mail or the
occasional wrapper or food container to see what it says.
Since the latest Windows 10 update the other day, I have come across a
few issues, one of which is Open Book just freezes now when I try to
scan a letter or a food label etc.
I do have a Samsung printer/scanner and can easily use windows scanning
tool to create a bmp, jpg or tif file.
I've never really studied the OCR functionality of jaws, so can anyone
tell me, can Jaws now take over the Open Book or the old Kursweil
functions? If the postman drops a letter through my door, can I now scan
it as an image and get Jaws to read it proficiently?
I've read something along the lines of, save your image file, then
select shift F10 and there's an option to use Jaws to read the text on
the image? Is it really that easy?
I do have the latest Jaws 18 build, Windows 10 with a 32bit pc and a 64
bit machine as well on our home network here.
