teeni – Thanks. The nice thing about this software is that I don’t seem to have to “teach” it at all. It get’s almost everything right to the point that, when I proof the OCR’s product, I have to read it it very carefully, looking for typos.

Best wishes for 2010 and beyond.

I’m glad you were able to get a newer version of the OCR software and that it was compatible with Windows 7. It sounds like fun. I had the opportunity to do some OCR work a number of years ago and I enjoyed “teaching” it to read new fonts and things. Now I will sound like a nerd. LOL. Hi Mike – hope 2010 is being good to you!

Dot & Rose – Omnipage 17 is much better than 14 was, so it all turned out better in the long run.

The purpose of the little windows is to allow you to see what is open when you run the cursor over them. For instance, right now if I put the cursor over my firefox icon, four windows will come up. One of them will show a smaller version of this page, another is the firefox download page, and the other two are open for editing another project that I am working on.

I agree it is unfortunate that Windows 7 couldn’t handle it. Sounds like a great program.

Intriguing! It’s unfortunate that Windows 7 couldn’t handle Omnipage 14, but nice that it led to a great Christmas gift.

BTW, what is the purpose of those mini-windows that Windows Vista and Windows 7 pop up when the cursor is on the bar at the bottom? I haven’t figured it out.
