Thanks again.
Since yesterday I have made some progress in orientating myself in the "Fine
Reader" environment.
I shall definitely ask for help as I go along.

Thanks for this info.

I'm really surprised with this strange behaviour since here, it only
takes me about 6 seconds to scan one full-sized page with my FineReader
7.

First, you should get familiarized with FR by scanning small material.
Under the menu bar, you'll find a toolbar with text buttons. The first
one is entitled "Scan&Read". It is a good idea to get familiarized with
FineReader by using this button first.

Although I got no expreience at all with OpenBook, if you have
FineReader specific questions, don't hesitate and I'll do my best to
reply as efficiently as I can. Then, FineReader user manual and online
help are good sources of information also, especially those of versions
6 and above.

Definitely IMHO.
HTH, Have a nice day. Chris
