Hi, <br>
I can recommend the Finereader OCR-software. <br>
It supports a.100 languages and can be tuned according to your own
character set. <br>
Our experience with Slavonic languages (incl. mixed texts) was pretty
well. <br>
Best, MK<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi,
We used Ompnipage Pro for scanning texts for the COMPARA corpus, but
we chose to use it was back in 2000. It seemed to be the best OCR
software available at the time. We have some more texts to digitize,
and I'd be interested to know if there is anything better available today.

<pre wrap="">Hi,
We are involved in a project that entails digitizing a large number
of reading textbooks. We will discard images, tables, figures, etc.,
and hope to keep manual editing of the text itself to the
minimum. We'd appreciate it greatly if someone with similar
experience could recommend some quality scanner/OCR software.
Thanks very much,
Xiaofei Lu
