I really really love the output FineReader creates, it's absolutely incredible that it even replicates tables with fairly good accuracy. I went ahead and installed the trial and found a help article which set me on the right path for getting it working with my scanner: Įssentially, you have to go to advanced, then there's a scan option, then you can scan multiple pages. Yes, I definitely remember you, gosh it's been a long long time. I have the same frustrations with finereader's interface that I do with pages. Sorry for the ramble but it is so frustrating. Let me know if I can help, although I probably don't know much more than you do about the software. I have an old epson 1660 perfection and it still seems to work fine. It calls the scans "projects" and you have to have one of them open to scan, or at least from what I can tell.

I don't understand why everything has gone to subscriptions.Īs I said before the scan and recognition seems to be good quality as long as you can figure out how to do it. When I pay subscription money I'd like to see regularly updated software.

I found a post from a year ago and it says that finereader won't do batch processing and that you still need rosetta until the software has been updated. I'm on my last day now and not sure if I want to do the subscription thing. If you download finereader you have 7 days to try it. That is one thing which has kept me from using the app. I've heard the same complaint about Prismo about being in a table structure. There is some info from ABBYY but it basically says plug in your scanner and click the scan button.
And I can't really find any info on the best way to scan and import. At least for me, it is not at all intuitive. I did the trial of ABBYY and it recognized well ehough but I find the interface to be really awkward. VueScan also works with those and makes the SnapScan line totally accessible, so that was a double win for me. I also have a Fujitsu SnapScan document scanner, which the official software has never been accessible. The professional package for $100 also includes OCR but since I already owned Prizmo when I bought Vuescan, I don't have any experience in how well or accessible the OCR features are. The standard package is $50 and lets you batch scan and save to. For example, it won't allow you to batch scan, which is probably something many blind people would want. well, really 3 but the basic package for $25 doesn't do very much.

There is a program called VueScan that keeps scanner hardware drivers working even when the official drivers by the scanner company are no longer supported because 32 bit support was dropped in macOS. the basic package is $50 and does what most people need, the professional package for $100 lets you script scanning and automate it. In my experience, the best OCR software on macOS right now is Prizmo.
