bootcamp win10 and sharpkeys?

2016-08-28 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi everyone,
I want to make a bootcamp windows 10 so i can use os x and windows side by 
side. On the mac i have seil and karabiner and vmware fusion but for some 
programs I need to use bootcamp. I was wondering though does sharpkeys still 
work on windows 10? I need an insert key and i would really like to have 
windows key and alt key function in a normal way.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
Yes, I do know that bootcamp is not a virtual machine. I am merely asking if 
sharpkeys does still work within windows 10 because i want to use that with 
bootcamp. IF I were using a vm i would not neet sharpkeys because I could use 
vmwares internal remapping capabilities and sail/carabiner.

reinstalling a native lion macbook air

2012-02-04 Thread Anouk Radix
Hello everyone,
I want to reinstall my 2011 macbook air. It came preinstalled with lion. I did 
hear that it has a recovery partition and that you can access this by hitting 
command+r while booting the machine. Is this accessible with voiceover? Can I 
then format my disk with disk utility or is running a reinstall enough?
Thanks in advance for any information,

verifying/connecting mba to wifi in recovery mode

2012-02-04 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi everyone, I want to completely reinstall lion on my macbook air that came 
preinstalled with it. I turned off disk encryption and was able to open the 
recovery partition while booting by pressing command+r. The help document 
states though that, ifyou want to reinstall, you have to be connected to the 
internet. I am not sure if the computer is connected or how i can connect 
because i cant read the status menu (command+2x m). I know my laptop is 
normally connected to wifi but am not sure if these settings are stored on the 
recovery disk as well. How can i check if the machine is connected and connect 
it manually if it is not/
Or is it not needed after all if you just want a standard reinstall?
Thanks in advance for any information,

Re: verifying/connecting mba to wifi in recovery mode

2012-02-04 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi, I guess an alternative would be to make a bootable usb lion install, i 
think Mike arrigo did a podcast on htis and there might be others.
I do suppose I can still use disk utility in recovery mode to erase my disk and 
i would then use the usb drive to reinstall the system thereby bypassing the 
need for an internet connection.
Would this work in my case?
Thanks in advance,

how to convert unprotected epubs/other ebook formats to txt?

2014-01-24 Thread Anouk Radix
Hello everyone,,
I am not a particularly big fan of ibooks on the mac. In the past i used stanza 
to convert epubs and other ebook formats to txtfiles. Under mavericks stanza 
does not seem to work for me anymore though, i get the message that the archive 
is damaged.
Are there any other accessible os x apps compatible with mavericks and still 
available/supported that can perform this task?
Thanks in advance for any information,

magnification on the mac

2014-02-05 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi everyone,
I have been a blind mac user for years now. Some friends of mine  are still 
able to use magnification and some people ask me for advice because supernova 
is crashy or jfw and magic are crashy on their systems.
Are there people that can give an account how  magnification works on the mac 
and if it is comparable what you can get on a windows pc with screenreading 
software?
Thanks in advance,

boocamp and mavericks?

2014-02-12 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi everyone,
I am hoping to try and install windows 7 (with bryan smarts talking 
environment) during the weekend on my last gen macbook air with mavericks.
I tried this before with a friend on mountain lion but then it did not work. I 
hope the upgrade to mavericks and the use of a dvd instead off a usb flashdrive 
will fix that.
But, it has been a while and i dont know if i remember all the steps.
Has someone made a tutorial or podcast for this, are there any specefic tips 
(regarding bootcamp with mavericks or the process in general done by a blind 
person)?
Thanks in advance for any info,

serious problems burning iso to disk on mavericks

2014-02-15 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi everyone,
I wanted to experiment with bootcamp next to my mac os x so i wanted to burn a 
windows iso to dvd in order to try it out.
I have an external dvd-drive that i have bought a few months ago and used 
successfully to read a few dvds in the past.
I just bought some new dvdd and inserted one into the external drive. The mac 
recognized the dvd and i told it to open finder.I went to disk utility opened 
the relevant iso through option+cmd+o and selected burn from the files menu.
Then i get a message cannot burn disk because the disk drive is not available.
What might go wrong here?
I am really peeved because i can apparently read dvds with this one but cant 
seem to write them.
I also tried burning the file just from the finder window but the seem result.
I also cant find where i can eject the disk on my macbook air 2013 since it 
does not show up on finder when containing an empty disc.
Help would be appreciated since i need a bootable dvd (bootable flash wont 
work).
Thanks in advance

a good youtube player for the mac?

2014-06-11 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi,
I like watching youtube videos on the mac but i do not like the osmetimes 
minutes long advertisements before you can go watch your video or the fact that 
you have to hit the load more button to see all an individuals videos.
Are there any other accessible youtube video players for the mac besides the 
site itself? or any players for iOS?
Thanks in advance

problems with apple mail + google 2-step verification

2014-07-07 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi everyone,
I use my google account and gmail a lot to create new acoounts on sites etc. As 
an extra precaution i thought it might be wise to setup 2-step verification. 
The setting itself went fine but then getting apple mail to work did not.
Since apple mail cant work with sms verification codes you have to generate an 
application specefic password on the google site. That part on the site, at 
least with safari does not seem to be accessible. I do see the dimmed generate 
button but not the parts where you should be able to select your mail 
application and the device that you use.
I wonder if others have experienced this as well and if there are any solutions 
(besides turning the safety feature off again which i did for the time being)?
Thanks in advance,
Greetings, Anouk,

working efficiently in the terminal with braille (or speech)

2014-07-11 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi,
I am following a podcast that has some pretty nice basic terminal 
introductions, i sometimes miss the old dos days and have liked for a while to 
learn a bit about the terminal.
However, i cant say i really find it usable with braille on os x.

I do see the command prompt but vo+left or quicknav left does not seem to do 
anything. The only way that i seem to be able to read what my last command did 
is using the item chooser but that blobs everything on one line and sometimes 
spills over and just in general does not seem to be all that useful.
How do others use this, can it be done with braille or do you have to use 
speech?
Is it possible to just read the text which terminal gives after you give it 
your last command> I dont want to read the whole terminal window just the last 
command and its result if at all possible.
Thanks in advance for any tips or info,
Greetings, Anouk,

Hi everyone,
vmware fusion is working well for me icm its own keymapping for alt and windows 
and sharpkeys for insert (i use the right shift for that).

a site that you can use fn+left arror to use home (beginning of document) but 
that does not seem to do anything. 
So, does anyone know how i can ge tthe home commandto work within

is it possible to timejump in itunes?

I have a rather long audio file that i have to play within itunes, but i cant

with option+command+left/right arrow it somehow does not seem to work as well 
as with vlc. So I was wondering if its possible to timejump to a specefic time 
in the file? I do see the time elapsed and time left just not a command in the 
menus to jump to a specefic segment.

wifi-problems with windows 7 under bootcamp

2015-03-31 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi everyone,
Sorry if this is slightly ot but i am using my mac privately now as well as in 
a workrelated situation. For the last situation i use windows 7 under bootcamp 
for productivity reasons. I notice however, that while on the macside wifi 
works great on windows the connection is VERY unstable, the network connection 
cant be established or it drops everytime and you have to reconnect manually. 
My macbook air is from july 2013 bur a friend of mine who has an older macbook 
with bootcamp and win7 is running into the seem issues.
I was wondering if more people have these and what your solutions are? 
Apparently bootcamp installs 3 wifi drivers and i was wondering if that might 
bring a conflict? I was wondering if an external wifi adapter might solve the 
issue? I think its weird still though because I have VERY good wifi on the 
macside and all the other stuff is working well when using bootcamp.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

hiding ibooks in ibooks app on the mac

2015-07-03 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi,
I have a fairly large ibooks library with books that i bought in the ibooks 
store. On ios i can filter the selection to only show ones stored on that 
device. I do notice that if i delete a book from my iphone the copy also 
sdisappears from the mac.
But I cant seem to filter on the mac the way i can on ios only showing the 
books that are stored on the mac at that time.
Is this possible somewhere?
I love the fact that the boks are in sync in where you are with reading on 
either device.

vmware fusion+windows 10 sharing an external drive

2015-08-03 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi,
I just upgraded to windows 10 from windows 7. I have the newest version of  
vmware fusion and am running the newest version of nvda as screenreader.
I want to share my external harddrive within vmware fusion so that I can copy 
files from within windows to that drive (i cant simply copy files out of the vm 
to the mac while I CAN copy files into the vm from the mac, a bit weird).
I shared the  drive within the vms preferences (command+e sharing turned on  
sharing first of course).
I hit win+e within windows 10 to go to file explorer, i go to network and turn 
on public file sharing but the drive does not turn up within the network as it 
would have within windows 7.
Is anyone experiencing anything similar or does anyone have suggestions that i 
could try to get htis working?
Thanks in advance,
The drive is ofrmatted as mac os x extended journalling but since vmware is 
making it into a network drive this should not matter (this is why i dont just 
give the drive to windows though).
Thanks in advance,

how to open an ibook on the mac?

2015-10-05 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi everyone,
I installed el capitain a few days ago. I have not used ibooks on the mac for a 
while. I have a lot of books so i hide the ones not downloaded on my mac.
I can delete a book but somehow cant seem to open one now on the mac. I 
interact with the bookshelf table and are on the title column but if i try to 
cmd+o on the book it wont open. Also vo+space does not work.
What am i doing wrong?
Thanks in advance for any info,
Greetings, Anouk,

reading with ibooks on mavericks?

2013-10-24 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi everyone,
I updated to mavericks yesterday and am happy with it mostly  (mail especially 
works better).
I tried ibooks and although i can find some books in the  store (by entering a 
search keyword) buy them and open them reading the actual book still seems a 
bit difficult.
I can do it with the item chooser but then i cant do anything else.
Can you read it normally and how can you turn pages?

Re: finder busy in large folders and can't create new users

Hi, I think its more about how many files and folders are in there as opposed 
to size on disk bu ti might be wrong, my large fodler contains about 1000 items 
in total and is about 1.5tb in size.
I know that is really large but with mountain lion i had no problems.

using vo temporary settings on someone elses machine

2013-11-24 Thread Anouk Radix
using vo temporary settings on someone elses machine
Hi everyone,
Sometimes I have to use a different ma cthen my own when i need to demonstrate 
stuff to others. I have made  some custom vo settings for my braille display 
and keyboard commander though that i dont like to have to  change each time 
that i use a mac that i snot mine.
Will the export settings export all of them and be able to import them on a 
different mac? Is it then possible to get back the settings that were there 
previously (for when i give the machine back to its original owner), or perhaps 
save the settings udner different filenames? Or is the only way to restore to 
defaults?
Thanks,
Greetings, Anouk,

ibooks on the mac, how do you all magane this?

2013-12-07 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi, I hate to bring this up again, maybe I am doing something wrong but reading 
ibooks on the mac (using braille) remains quite the challenge.
Next chapter command does not seem to work and i have to use the item chooser 
quite often to get text to scroll down so i can read new material. Quite time 
consuming and inefficient.
I can read on ios using speech, just read from cursor, but i comprehend text 
better if i read it in braille and normally find this experience more efficient 
on the mac.
Any tips guides or podcasts that can help with htis or is ibooks on the mac 
just not as accessible as of now?

 Hi listers,
 
 After listening to the tech doctor podcast, hi Robert, Excellent job, I 
 now have a very useful ibook on my phone, of which I wanted to make you 
 aware. To begin with: it is free. A sighted guy, named Tim Sniffen if I 
 remember correctly, did a book on mastering the mac. His audience is 
 mainly veterans, but the book is amazing, especially when you go through 
 the chapters for pages and numbers. The author wants to contradict the 
 reasoning, that the mac is okay for home use, but for more advanced office 
 applications and uses, people have to revert to windows. He talked to 
 people asking them what it is, that the mac cannot do, where windows is 
 the tool of choice. After reading these chapters, you may well feel 
 differently about this. Creating a default pages template, using custom 
 templates, hanging indents, inserting and formatting pictures, working 
 with tables, styles, specific accessibility issues, it's all in this book. 
 I've been reading and working through it all day, and I just wanted to 
 point you to it if you would like a good and structured read on how to use 
 these apps from a voiceover perspective. The author starts kind of easy, 
 but then really gets up to speed. Just a tip. Search for Sniffen in the 
 ibooks store on your phone or ipad, and it will be among the first few 
 results.
 
 Hth,
 Paul.

tip: reading 'mastering the macintosh with vo' ON THE MAC

2014-08-09 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi everyone,
I am not sure about the legalities of this but since ibooks on the mac is 
rather inaccessible with a braille display and even though you can use a 
braille display on ios it just does not feel as comfortable as reading braille 
on a mac to me.
So, i got this tip from an acquaintance of mine and thought i would share.
Since this is a free and apparently unprotected ibook (this does not 
neccessarily go hand in hand, some paid ibooks are protected others are not).
It is actually possi ble to read the ibook on the mac with safari. Epub 
apparently is just a container, at least the text of the ibook  is some kind of 
html.
to do this:
- imho its easiest to download the book on ios, make sure to open it as well on 
that device. 
- then open ibooks on the mac, it will ask you for your apple id so it can sync 
with icloud
- open the book on the mac once as well.
- then go to the finder and use the go to folder commando (cmd+shift+g) and 
paste the following path
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks/Books
this is the folder where apple stores the ibooks that you have downloaded onto 
your mac.
The books are given a random number, in my case since the book was the last one 
i added it was easy to find just by looking at the date modified column.
- go to that folder and then to the underlying ops folder. Here you will find 
the chapter files.
Its perhaps a good idea to copy the whole book to a different folder so that it 
will be easier to find in future.
hth

Hi, my problem is that i only seem to be able to do it by using the item

If i try to read it normally then i cant get to the next page or chapter. Also 
i could never seem to figure out how to use the table of contents to navigate

Hi, 
I have mailed aple accessibility as well.
These things should just work imho without you having to make your own

garagebands software instruments sounding rather disappointing

2014-09-11 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi everyone,
I just got my first midi keyboard the m-audio keystation 61 and i like it. I 
use it with garageband on the mac via usb and it just works immediately. The 
instruments that i have in gb are rahter disappointment though. I did download 
the extra stuff and i have mainstage for the jam packs but still most of it 
sounds like a very cheap home keyboard.
Are there any  other instruments that you can get?
Thanks in advance for any info.

how to expand a list with vo?

Hi everyone,
In the past i could expand lists within mail (grouped conversations) with 
hitting the right arrow, i could de-expend tham with hitting left. Since today 
this does not seem to work anymore. I can expand ALL covnersations but thats a

Is there a special command for doing this?

Thanks for that. Now that i think about it i remember people talking about this

I restarted the mac and that did the trick.

The trese brothers now have a kickstarter for the prequal i find the

If you pledge 50 you can become an alpha tester and help make the game

problems with gmail after reinstalling mavericks

2014-10-02 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi everyone,
After reinstalling mavericks last night (i had to FIRST install mountain lion, 
that is what my laptop came with and then mavericks on top, i made a clean 
install so wiped the drive first) I am having some problems with gmail that i 
did not have before anymore.
I have auto updates turned on.
My problem is that messages which i deleted from my inbox AND from the trash 
still reappear in my inbox folder even if mail quits normally.
The othe rpborlem is that sometimes mail does not want to quit, i get a message 
could not move (name of message) tot he trash folder. I then have to force quit.
Are there any know solutions for this? I thought i would be past this after 
some updates about half a year ago.
Thansk in advance for any info.

need some help with mactubes: how to dowload videos and to search for author?

2014-10-08 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi, 
I am probbably doing something wrong here. I got mactubes and got it all setup, 
i can search for a certain video and find results but then i am stuck.
If I interact on the list of results and stand on the video I want then vo 
shift+m does not do anything (I was assuming that this would bring up the 
context menu so I could actually start downloading it.
I have not been able to find a shortcut hotkey to accomplish this.
Can anyone tell me how this works?
Apparently you are also able to search for videos by the seem author or enter 
urls to download from. Can anyone tell me how this is done?
Thanks in advance

Re: Skipping ads on YouTube was mactubes question

2014-10-09 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi, Just to clarify, I suppose you used a sighted person to find that skip ads 
button the first time? Because i never see it in form controls or item chooser.

Re: hot to download youtube videos on mac?

2014-10-09 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi, I tried mactubes as well but I PERSONALLY vastly prefer a program called 
downie.
Its totally accessible and can work with many many many other sites besides 
youtube.
I installed a plugin for safari and now it is even easier, when you are playin 
gthe video that you want to download from youtube, in the safari toolbar there 
will be a button open with downie. Then, if the video is part of a playlist you 
will have the opportunity to download that in its entirity. The program can 
even extract just the audio and save it as mp3, deleting the original mp4 or 
other files.
Its all pretty intuitive and automatic.
The app is not free but there is a 7 day trial.
I think it costs 15 orso, for me its totally worth that. I have been 
downloading twit podcasts and youtube videos with it all day and it just owrks 
flawlessly.

Re: hot to download youtube videos on mac?

2014-10-12 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi, I think I said this already:
The video gets downloaded first then, if you want (you can select this in the 
apps settings) the app converts the file to mp3 and then deletes the original 
video. You can give it as many videos ad you like and if you like it will 
autostart  them one after another so you dont need to look at it again.
What i like about this app in contrast with mactubes is that you can use safari 
to select the videos that you want to import, i personally did not like that 
mactubes limited the results to 50 and then you had to go to the following 
pages.
With downie you can also get a whole playlist or, as i like to do it get all 
the videos by a certain user by going to his or her profile selcting videos and 
then selecting the first one, once that one is playing you can easily do next 
video until you have them all (with each one you then select open with downie 
in the safari toolbar) it works quite well for me personally.

Re: hot to download youtube videos on mac?

2014-10-12 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi Ray, I have not found that one yet: how can you configure downie to autoload 
all videos?
Another thing that i like is that, if you have the safari extension installed 
downie works with LOADS of other sites as well, even sites that it does not 
officially support (like twit).
I will certainly be buying this in a few days totally worht its price to me 
personally although i have yet to try if it works with protected youtube videos 
that are set to not be downloadable or if it owrks with videos that use ads.

Hi, Ah see how different people are I see this as a big plus, i found mactubes

The extension for downie shows up in your safari toolbar so you have to make

Hi,
Downie does download youtube playlists. IF a video is part of one downie will 
automatically ask you if you want to download the whole playlist or just the

weird issue with web rotor under yosemite

2014-10-27 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi everyone,
I just installed yosemite for the first time (clean install) and I noticed 
something strange with the web rotor. It seems tor efresh now each time it 
opens it says for example loaded 30 links or more. In the past it showed me the 
total of the links on the page but now it does not seem to do this anymore. I 
used to rely on this at times. It does say this in the summary if you turn it 
on but i do use braille a lot and then (luckily) the summary is not spoken.
Anyone else noticed this?

possibly getting back to the mac

2011-07-07 Thread anouk radix
Hi everyone, I have been away from the mac community since april 2010 
(although i did buy an iphone in september'. I am thinking of getting 
back into it when the new macbook air is released and if it fullfills 
the hopes that I have for it. I have heard rumors that it will be 
released nearly immediately with mac osx lion, has anyone heard 
confirmation about this= I was also wondering if all the standard apple 
apps will still be accessible within lion and if anyone knows if there 
will also be a new iwork version soon.


Furthermore there were a few programs that I wanted to use on the mac 
but were not accessible or not all THAt accessible at the time. For 
example at that time there was no really good usenet client or a client 
to play online game swith )muds'. I was wondering if this has changed 
now. I was also wondering if garageband is now accessible and if the 
seem is true for protools=
Vuze )for torrents' didnt really work back then, i was wondering if this 
is still the case.
I know we had just gotten finereader when I stopped using hte mac but 
that it only was a light version and a version 9 at that, i was 
wondering if there are now any more ocr offerings on the mac platform=
A lot of questions I know but it might help me to decide wether or not 
to get back onto the mac wagon.

Thanks in advance for any information,
Greetings, Anouk,

external soundcard for macbook

2011-07-08 Thread anouk radix
Hello,
I am intending to use either protools or garageband once I get a macbook 
pro so I will need to connect a midi keyboard, also I want to connect 
some speakers to it.
Are there any external soundcard solutions for use with the macbook 
family that also have accessible drivers? With either a firewire, usb or 
optical connection to connect it to the macbook.

It owuld b enice if it had a midi input and xlr fixed outputs for speakers.
I know m-audio has a big range of cards but most of them seem to be 
internal.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Re: Audio Production, was: Re: using a mac full time?

Op 13-7-2011 21:50, Gary Readfern-Gray schreef:

Hi Chris,

just my short take on using a Mac and audio production.

Well, I bought my mac to get an accessible version of Pro tools and found that 
I just wasn't using my Windows machine at home at all after that. Whilst I 
still use Jaws every day at work, I now prefer the Mac environment and never 
thought I'd ever be saying that.

OK, So, I first found pro tools very clunky to use up until last night where I 
heard a tutorial by Kevin Reeves and I now I've found it to be brilliant and it 
will do all the things in your list apart from work with your dxi plugs, you'll 
have to use a vst adapter and use the vst versions.

So, finally about the price, People are selling there MBoxes fairly cheaply on 
EBay so you could probably pick up a second hand mbox 2 mini for  about 150 
bucks or maybe less, I've just checked and they're going from 59 bucks to 150 
and, of course, you get pro tools in the box. If you do it, you'll need Pro 
tools version 8 so that you won'd have to pay extra for the 8.4 accessible 
version. Still a chunk of money i know but much cheaper than the 600 for pro 
tools 9.  deffinately, deffinately do that because you won't look back if you 
do. Plus the PTAccess list is very helpful and will help you out using it.


OK, so it wasn't very short after all but hth.

OK, but I really don't wanna buy something not fully knowing not just if
it's gonna be accessible but also will it meet all my needs

for example:

1.  Can I edit audio, cropping things, paste mixing things, adding effects,
using pitch correction on my vocal tracks, adding effects like reverb,
panning certain tracks for a better stereo effect, raise or lower volume,
identify if I'm clipping on a certain track, etc.

2.  Can I over-dubb, and multi-track onto seperet tracks then manipulate the
tracks individually?

3.  Can I record both audio as well as midi?

4.  Can I play back midi?

5.  Say I have a midi file already arranged, can I import it, and then
over-dubb all my vocal tracks, and add pitch correction and effects like
reverb etc. to them?

6.  Can I import an mp3 file, then over-dubb/multi-track whatever else on
top of it on a seperet track?

7.  Can I add dynamic compression and E Q effects or envelope effects to
tracks?

8.  Can I Do snap to grid kind of editting?

9.  Can I have a click track produced by audio, not by midi that I can use
to stay in good timing?

10.  If I can do midi, is there an ability to quantize each track
individually?

11.  If I can do midi, can I import .sf2 sound font files and use them?

12.  Finally, can I import and use external d x i, and v s t plug ins?

If sound studio can do all this, then I may, provided it isn't too confusing
of an app for me to work with, consider it, but being I do audio production
for a living, it needs to be extremely concised.  Yeah, I do audio
production for a living, but work is incredibly slow right now.  I'm sorry,
I just cannot afford Pro tools.  Period, bottom line.

finereader express (mac) vs finereader 10 (windows)

2011-07-25 Thread anouk radix
Hi guys,
More people seem to use finereader for the mac nowadays.
I have been using finereader 10 pro on a windows machine for the last 
few months and have been extremely happy with it. I thought that for the 
mac we only have v9 and an express version at that. I was wondering if 
anyone comparedthose two versions to see if there is a big step back?

If I get a mac I would like to use vmware fusion as little as possible.

helper by one Alex or another, i think it owrked via skype but i forgot

Hello Anouk,

The major problem with DocuScan is that it only offers English. In addition, 
since the OCR is done in the cloud, it's slower than doing it all on your 
computer.

My preferred solution is to scan using VueScan and have ABBYY FineReader 
perform the OCR.

If I'm scanning a whole book, I set VueScan to multipage scanning, and scan the 
whole book into one TIFF file. I have TIFF files all set to open with ABBYY 
FineReader by default so the file opens automatically and I just have to tell 
FineReader the title, where to put it and its format.

Cheers,

Anne

Hey,
Ah thanks for that, that is indeed pretty important for me since most of 
the texts I scan are in Dutch. I am pretty sure there are drivers for my 
scanner and at least snow leopard, i think hp will update them for lion 
as well so I think I would be able to use finereader directly if I can 
get it working with the sheetfeader.

Thanks again!
