Does any one have experience with optical character recognition software
for the mac?  I'm particularly interested in ReadIt! from Olduvai Software.
I have access to a MacScan flatbed scanner and a Mac II with 2 megs RAM.
I want to know whether it's feasible to scan whole books of information into
text files.  Thanks, David Herlihy
