CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This review could consist of three words: it doesn't work. In our tests, we used documents that entirely consisted of text. The characters were very large and clear, but OCR-TextScan 2 Word didn't correctly recognize a single word. The program has quite a few settings to enhance recognition quality, but why should an average user have to worry about the minimal object size or the black/white separation value? The only reason we didn't grade this program lower is it didn't actually crash. In our view, it's absolutely useless.Publisher's description
From CAD-KAS :Don't waste your time and retype paper text into your computer. With OCR-TextScan 2 Word you can scan paper documents. The program now tries to find the text information out of the scanned picture and to save it as word or text file. You still have to correct the texts but you save a lot of time compared with complete retyping of the text. Text in the most used fonts can be recognized. You can start the OCR process over command line for large amounts of scanned files. You only have to provide the program with the name of the picture file and the output RTF/DOC file.
