Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is a must-have program is you scan documents or receive faxes on your PC. It takes optical scanning recognition (OCR) to a level I never thought possible, and is a quantum leap from the OCR software that comes bundled with most scanners. ScanSoft, the manufacturer, claims a 40% improvement and from my experience I will not dispute this.
What I love, though is the fact that it handles columns and tables by doing a near-perfect conversion. It will also save your scanned files as HTML, which is a real plus if you have a web site and want to quickly add pages without creating them from scratch.
Adding to the power is the ability to import Adobe PDF files and convert them into Word documents, as well as to export your scanned documents as PDF files. This feature is convenient, but does not fully replace Adobe Acrobat 5.0, which does a lot more (see the Amazon product page for a fuller description of this software).
Other strengths is the "despeckle" module that will read scanned documents that have smears and other imperfections that will confuse other OCR programs.
I am using this software on a Windows 98 Second Edition system with a Canon CanoScan N650U USB scanner (the scanner is available from Amazon), and have been nothing but pleased with it. If you handle documents, especially faxes or paper, this will be one of your most essential tools.

OmniPage Pro 11 is the fastest, easiest way to turn paper documents into digital files you can edit. It features superior accuracy and the ability to convert PDF files into Microsoft Office documents. OmniPage Pro 11 extends its recognition capabilities from 13 to 114 languages and from one to three alphabets, including Greek, Latin, and Cyrillic. This new version also handles grayscale and color images. It can use the extra pixel-depth information in grayscale images to internally generate black-and-white images for optimized OCR performance.
The new page formatter in OmniPage Pro 11 allows you to maintain every aspect of your original document, including columns, tables, and type styles. You can save documents in PDF format for archiving or sharing: image and paper documents can be transformed into PDF files for searching, preservation, and cross-platform distribution. The new IntelliTrain feature takes note of the changes you make in the proofing process. It then goes on its own "search and destroy" mission to find any recurrence of similar errors and corrects them automatically.
New despeckle enhancements allow you to take degraded documents like faxes and copies and recognize them with accuracy. And the ability to maintain text alignment and cell styles of spreadsheets and tables (even no-grid tables) means you won't have to worry about retyping or reformatting. You can also perform OCR functions directly from your favorite Microsoft programs for hassle-free OCR. This works with Office 97, 2000, and XP. WYSIWYG HTML output means you can easily turn documents into Web pages. With this version, the program can now also recognize color backgrounds and color text.
