5 out of 5 stars OmniPage 17 - Everything is fine   January 12, 2010

After reading the three previous pans of this product I have to put in a good word. I can't say how someone who has never used an OCR program will react to this product, but if you are a user of previous versions of OmniPage you will feel right at home. I have been using OmniPage since Version 6 or earlier. Sometimes I have felt a particular new version was a step back from the previous version, but that is not the case here. I have just upgraded from version 14 to 17 and it appears to be excellent. If you are doing an upgrade and can't remove the prior version, which is apparently a requiement, open up the folder where the old version is located and find the file named "remover.exe". This apparently gets rid of whatever is preventing the new software to load. Regarding some of the negative comments, once I understood how to uninstall the previous version (this took about 15 seconds and a system restart) the installation was painless and very quick. "Just When You Thought" said that the program was difficult to use, I just don't see it. Maybe its becasue I have used the other versions for so long, but Version 17 was a breeze. As for importing PDF pages I have had no problems.


5 out of 5 stars OCR as good as it gets!   October 5, 2009

I have used at least 5 other OCR programs in the past. The programs ranged from downright crude to fairly sophisticated. The best was OmniPage 12, it delivered nearly flawless formatting. At least that is what I thought before I used Omnipage 17. They really have done their homework when they built this product. Thanks!

Better than I anticipated. A significant improvement over OmniPage 10 which I have used for about 8 years.


5 out of 5 stars Impressed with Omnipage 17   June 5, 2009

Normally I am not that impressed with software, new to the marketplace, but I am thoroughly impressed with OmniPage 17. It is a good fit for the way I need to use it and all the features of the software work flawlessly. OmniPage OCR function has progress over the years and now in OmniPage 17 it is without doubt the most accurate OCR that I have tried to date.

The direct OCR buttons in MS Office 2007 (Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc.) work perfectly for me and I use them daily. This one feature alone is a real time saver for me. I work a lot in SharePoint and being able to move effortlessly from OmniPage 17 to SharePoint is great.

I have a Kindle and OmniPage 17 allows me to turn scanned documents into formatted pages for my Amazon Kindle and sends them to the Kindle. You don't have to purchase anything else to make this happen like a special scanner. OmniPage 17 works with all three of my scanners. I have a Canon flatbed, a Canon automatic paper feed scanner, and a HP Photosmart all-in-one printer/scanner with no problems using either piece of equipment with OmniPage 17.

I have found OmniPage 17 to be superior in every way I have used it. I recommend OmniPage 17 to everyone and suggest that it is a must have program for anyone in need of OCR to turn articles from periodicals or other paper or photos in usable media.

I compared the OCR processing of a printed letter containing a logo using OmniPage17 and Acrobat 9 Professional. OmniPage required several prompts to correct suspects and handled the logo as text. Acrobat on the other hand processed the file seamlessly and correctly.

The good news is that the company stood by its 30-day money back guarantee.
My advice is to give it a try. If it works for you, fine. Otherwise you can be certain of getting a prompt refund.
