OCRman:
Hi guys

I was searching for some info for a review that I'm doing on the current batch of OCR software and this post came up!
I haven't seen this site before, but I've had a bit of a poke around now - very interesting and useful stuff..

If you are interested, the review will be posted at http://www.ocrreview.com.

I've already posted some of the testing results there for Adobe Acrobat 8, ABBY Finereader 8 Pro, Omnipage Pro 16 and IRIS ReadIris Pro 11 Corporate ed..
The formatting of converted docs was an area I particularly wanted to test, and there was quite a bit of difference between them.


Any feedback and suggestions would be appreciated!

Looks interesting OCRman, and welcome.  I will be very interested when you get to some of the cheaper and free alternatives, i don't do a lot of OCR work but its incredibly frustrating when you know thats what you need, but the price is just way too much for the amount of use versus other more important things. 

mouser:
Great work OCRman -- and please let us know when the review is complete.

OCRman:
Grorgy, there are some freebies available, but I haven't had a chance to look at them yet:

SimpleOCR - http://www.simpleocr.com/Download.asp
GOCR (Open Source) - http://jocr.sourceforge.net/
Tesseract OCR - Open Source - get a frontend here http://softi.co.uk/tess.htm
M$ Office - Microsoft Office Document Imaging (under Office Tools if you have Office installed!)

OCRman:
I've added the formatting testing to the site for your consumption - thought it could be useful considering the content of this post so far...
