    3. Hi, I got this address from a friend of mine for digital photography info. Another friend has a new MAC and wants to find an OCR scanner that will work with it. Can anyone supply me with sites or info for him? Thank you Don PS enjoy the information that comes thru.

    3. Don, As far as the scanner itself goes, pretty much any flatbed scanner with a USB interface will work. Just look for one that says it's compatible with a Mac. The important part is finding OCR software for the Macintosh, and some scanners come bundled with such software already. The Canon 5000F comes with a lite Mac version of Omnipage OCR software: http://www.usa.canon.com/html/conCprProductDetail.jsp?modelid=8053&item=8052&section=10218 For stand-alone software: Readiris Pro is a good product: http://www.irisusa.com/products/readiris/mac/index.html ABBYY Finereader is another: http://www.abbyy-finereader.com/ Good luck in your quest, Scott Orlowski http://ontrackcommunications.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Donald l Ruddy" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, July 22, 2003 12:14 PM Subject: [SP] Looking for help > Hi, I got this address from a friend of mine for digital photography > info.
