Cheapest OmniPage 16 by Nuance for PC


I bought this product last year, "upgrading" from Abby Fine Reader (had a very old version).
Although it seems very accurate at faithfully reproducing words, there are 2 things I really dislike:
1. You can't scan just part of a page, which means if there are pictures on the scanned page, you have to delete them all if you just want the text.
2. When you send the text to Word and then try to change the font & size, you get some weird text - it's not all the same (?maybe a Word problem).
So, if I want to email a news article to a friend, I find myself just scanning it as a .jpeg picture to avoid the hassle of using Omnipage 16.
I eventually will get another OCR and I think I will go back to Abby.Get more detail about OmniPage 16 by Nuance for PC.
