TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I have an HP ScanJet IIC with automatic document feeder (2 years old).
I use Omnipage Pro for text scanning. The only drawback I have found,
OP doesn't recognized enough of the mathematical symbols for my work.
(i.e., like computer science techical reports which are riddled with
mathematical formulas).
I have been very pleased with the scanner. It does a great job.
I don't use the Graphics part of the OP because for some reason it hangs my
system up (sometimes) when it's running and then I have to reboot.
For graphics and photographs I use the software that came with the scanner.
Again, I bought my system 2-3 years ago.
