"Good OCR function. Fair interface. No starting tutorial"
Version: Readiris Pro 12.0.5
Pros
Worked with a networked HP PhotoSmart 310 on a network. Let's you choose the dpi. It makes fewer mistakes at this higher dpi (Higher than 600 seems a waste) Previews sections well. Lets you preview and alter sections.
Cons
Fair to poor user interface. It does not flow. It looks like a typical windows program that has been ported to the mac. In this day and age, I don't see why it couldn't include video tutorials showing how to get the results you want as its features.
Summary
It does what is says -barely. It converts text on the page to an editable text document. It has some problems with documents that were produced on an old typewriter but it handled everything else very well with very few mistakes. It took a lot of trial and error. Tables were not always recognized as tables but as boxes of text. It is not worth the price. It was worth it when HP used to include it with their installed software. But to pay this much for it was disappointing.
