Hi Matt
I use the ocr reader in Jaws itself. I think it is excellent.
Also, have you tried the Seeing AI app? There is a document reading channel
option which is very good.
Hope this helps

Subject: [jaws-uk] ocr
Hi, I am looking for advice on finding a decent ocr software. I use
K1000 and I have recently been testing the latest from FineReader (which
incidentally is what K1000 is built around) and in all honesty I haven't
noticed any visible difference between the two versions (9 and 14) and neither
seems equipped to handle even reasonable quality print. Omnipage gets praise
for speed accuracy etc but I don't believe there is a demo version for people
to try, and the commercial versions aren't cheap.
maybe it's my scanner that is the problem. does the list recommend a
particular make and or model suitable for ocr? mine is a Canon LiDE120.
Many thanks, Matt.
