Hi all, Just a further note of clarification to simplify getting this ocr software setup and running. You might look first at getting the SANE software installed and running with your scanner. Once you have this running and can produce '.tif' files, you are away to the races. The xtrclilite software operates on a .tif file from your scanner to produce the ascii text output from the ocr engine. so, unless you can scan pages from your scanner into .tif files, the xtrclilite ocr software won't be any use to you. Hope this will avoid any misconceptions about what the vividata ocr software does. i.e. it is NOT an OpenBook equivalent for linux. For each page you scan, you get one file of tiff format. xtrclilite takes this .tif file and produces an ascii text file that you can read/edit as you wish with standard linux tools.
