Description:
Known for its accuracy and ease of use, OmniPage Pro 10 has earned its reputation as one of the most popular Optical Character Recognition (OCR) applications available. By converting printed documents into editable text, this program frees the user from hours spent retyping letters, papers, contracts, and more. Pages from books, magazines, and faxes are easily processed using the automated wizard. Process pages directly from your scanner or from one of six popular image file formats. You can even import text directly into a document that you are working on in Word or another application without opening OmniPage Pro. The application lets you choose whether you would like to save plain text, text with formatting, or text and images with formatting. The most visible improvements to this version fall under the page layout heading. For example, the OmniPage True Page output format provides a nearly perfect replicate of the printed page for easy export to desktop publishing software. There is also a new feature that can read recognized text out loud to aid in proofreading. The manufacturer claims that OmniPage can recognize text on almost any document, including poor photocopies or faxes with better than 99% accuracy. Our tests showed much poorer accuracy on photocopies, faxes, and color print outs, but the results were good enough to represent a significant timesavings over retyping documents. Other documents were handled remarkably well, including text and images scanned from a full color magazine. --Elizabeth Wall--This review refers to the full version
