Will it work with the latest Canon Lide Scanners?

Hi Anne and others.
I've just tried the latest demo of FineReader and I'm really surprised how well the OCR works. It works really very well when converting into html, and VOiceover reads all tables as shown on the paper. That's awesome!
I have some questions about the program:
1: Would it automatically rotate the image if the paper is placed wrong in the scanner? 2: Is it possible to add Vue scan or Finereader to the menubar in Textedit like Omnipage in Windows? 3: Why can't I access the preferences in FineReader? Because I'm running the demo? It looks as FineReader is really worth the money, but it's a shame it won't work with my old Canoscan Lide. It's great that it ignores the watermarc from Vuescan though. :)
Best regards:

hello Søren,

I agree that VueScan doesn't do very good OCR. I used it as a stopgap while ABBYY FineReader wasn't available for Lion.


These days, I use VueScan for scanning and ABBYY FineReader for OCR.

Let me know if you want the setup guide to get this to work seamlessly.

Cheers,

Anne

I totally agree here. DocuScan Plus is only for people who needs to scan texts in english. Well, Serotek have told me that they might support other languages in the future which I really hope, but we'll see. I'll check out Finereader and see how well it works. I'm tired of using Vue scan to run OCR on nonenglish texts. :)
Best regards:
