hello thanks for the information, it's just to read my post. thanks frank -----Original Message----- From: john coley Sent: Wednesday, March 12, 2014 11:32 AM To: jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: scanner Graham, the scanner comes with free on board software which has a perfectly acceptable OCR. It's possible to set it so that the scanner will scan and OCR simply by pressing one of the five programmable buttons on the front of the scanner. Obviously ABBYY will do a lot more, but the free software may serve his purposes fine.

I'd suggest looking at something like Abbyy FineReader which can be bought for under £100. There are also solutions designed for visually impaired people such as Docuscan Plus from Serotek. This costs about 300 dollars so I wreckon it aught to be available for around £220 but that's just a guess. There is also Kurzweil 1000 which costs what now seems a rather expensive £695.00.
