[Corpora-List] Scanner/OCR software recommendations

[Ana Frankenberg-Garcia]

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.
