Back When Dinosaurs Roamed The Earth Part I

Me, in 1994: "I have just successfully scanned my first Pros gif and can make it available to interested parties. It's a B&W (that's all the scanner can handle) photo of Bodie and Doyle. I have 3 or 4 other photos that I can also scan in if there is interest (and even if there is not I have found a new toy).

BTW, does anyone have access to character recognition software that is Apple compatible? We have an Apple scanner, 4 bit, black & white. We also have have Apple Scan 1.0.2. If we can get a hold of the software I will try scanning in more circuit stories."

Finereader Express is available for Macs; the full version of Finereader is not. (Is not cheap.)

VelOCRaptor is $29; works on PDFs; is easy to convert any image file to a PDF.

PDF OCR X has a free version that does one page at a time, or the full version for $29. (Could try the free version and see how well it does.)

Your response has been the best (so far). "Quick BatFan, into the time machine and head back to 1994 with the answers!"

I am looking forward to seeing you tomorrow. Or in 1994, whichever comes first.
