I too have looked at this program. It has a number of issues: Unlabelled buttons, our old friend the unlabelled button! What is so hard about filling out the accessibility field in interface builder, I would like to know, that keeps developers from doing this? I was able to open the interface files and add the missing labels and I could make a patch file to permit other to add these to their copies but I am unsure of the legality of such an action.
Much more serious is the fact that the program seems unable to detect pages placed in the scanner upside down, a common issue with blind users and which would limit it usefulness. Finally there seems to be no option that I have found to have the scanners work in any kind of continues mode for the scanning of a book for example. On the whole the interface is accessible however and when it does do OCR the results is very accurate.
