...They also have a version with colours. But then you will first need to click "Other software" and scroll some more, not knowing what you are looking for! Really a bizarre design!

Yes, their website does seem a rather strange design. I think it might be written by a visually/perceptually disabled person, for others of similar disability.

IainB:
Wow, it has OCR. -tomos (October 04, 2012, 05:49 AM)

I need to say that in my setup the included OCR has never given a useful result. Not even once!
Apart from that this, I am most satisfied with my Pro version.

That's a pity. I hadn't got around to testing that out yet.
The OCR in Qiqqa is superb, by the way.

IainB:
WARNING! WARNING!
Thought I should let you know that the Dark Screen setup file downloaded from fx-software and as provided by @Curt in the thread above both apparently contain a particularly nasty payload called Adware.Rabio:


I only found out when I tried to install the thing today. I let Malwarebytes quarantine it, which aborted the install.

-they have a new address: http://www.fx-software.co.uk/assistive.htm but still a bizarre site design! You need to scroll and scroll, and then to scroll some more, to find the file. Or you can have it here:

IainB:
@ewemoa: Thanks for that. I think I'll err on the side of caution.
Having gone through the exercise of cleaning up some seriously nasty Adware on other people's laptops, I don't want to push my luck.
