Hello,
ABBYY Fine Reader Express is an OCR package, not a scanning application. So you 
need something to first scan the document. For example, I use my HP scanning 
utility to create a tif or pdf image. Then I use ABBYY Fine Reader Express to 
perform the OCR. It does one heck of a good job.
Here is the advantage. No matter what way I put the document in the scanner and 
create the image to be processed, after I use ABBYY Express to do the OCR part 
of the operation, the outcome is always correct and rightside up.
