1 out of 5 stars Do not deal with this company   July 10, 2007

Nuance owns OmniPage. OmniPage was once my OCR of choice. Now it is a crippled relic.

Furthermore, Nuance will use every device imaginable to avoid refunding money to dissatisfied buyers of products they sell.

I have a dispute going with PayPal for a refund.

I bought this software in Jan '04 and I've had occasion to use it infrequently, fortunately for me. As noted in other reviews, it can recognize simple text such as in a book page w/o photos or tables. But add any boxes, tables or graphs and it stumbles badly and does a Bill Gates, simply locks up.

You can't even ask a question w/o registering the product and that in itself is a task. Pack a lunch because you'll be there a while. They ask early on for a serial number and even tho it had been more than two years I had the original packaging. Feeling rather smug I opend the package and "mirebile dictu" NOTHING called a serial number, plenty of alphnumerics tho. After several tries, I found that serial number is code for "description". Then I moved on to pages of intrusive qustions up to but not including masturbatory fantasies, thank you. Then they had the temerity to try to sell me stuff.

There may be a good, simple, intuitive scanning program out there, but this ain't it. There may be a customer responsive company out there but Scansoft (now Nuance, how cute) ain't it. Keep looking and good luck, Jack Shale



2 out of 5 stars Works fine on simple text, not so on complex format.   June 16, 2005

Text recognition is very good on a simple, typewrited page but, hey, there are sharewares that do this for free. I tested Omnipage mainly on complex textbook pages with headers, 2 columns, figures with legends. I chose 240 dpi as a compromise between size and accuracy. The result:
1. When converting a 2-column page to PDF, the text flows ACROSS the columns instead of down then right. Useless for cut & paste. Also, word search is not sequential. Omnipage support never answered my questions on this issue (nor on any other).
2. Figures with small objects on a contrasting background (e.g. birds flying in the sky) are interpreted as text, with laughable result. In general, the recognition of image fields was bad.
5. Figure legends were systematically included with the text around them instead of being assigned to a separate text box.
4. This beast needs A LOT of CPU. I ran it on a 2.8GHz P4 and it was crawling through the pages.
5. Not an Omnipage issue, but as an aside: Omnipage offers to save the text as a MS Word file. Note that MS Word will not open a file larger than 32 Mb. I did not know this. Did you?
Final word: mediocre, too expensive. Try sharewares first.



3 out of 5 stars NEED HELP WITH OMNI PAGE PRO 10   April 22, 2005
 6 out of 15 found this review helpful

I have been using Omni Page Pro 10 here at my work. However, in the last few months, when I scan it takes forever for it to scan -- recognizing goes faster tho.

I have removed all unnecesary programs from my computer thinking that I was using all my RAM. I am on a network.

However, this hasn't solved my problem. I am now running Win XP and have ServicePack 2 installed. Could this be my problem? Can anyone help?

Would like to get some input from others who have used Omni Page Pro 10 to get some ideas of what to try before I turn this over to our IT Department.

Like ya'll, I really do like Omni Page Pro 10 -- but with the problem that I am having was wondering if I needed to upgrade Omni Page Pro 14 -- but considering what ya'll have said -- upgrading would give me a bigger nightmare.

Please help if you can!!!
