5/6 I have a 45-page typed manuscript that needs to be turned into
a digital text document. Any recommendations for an OCR service
that would do that with high reliability and low cost?
\_ If you have a scanner, photoshop and acrobat (full version)
you can do it yourself. Just scan each page in at 300dpi or
higher and then use acrobat to OCR it into a pdf. I did this
for lots of old papers that I lost the soft copies of and
it worked great.
\_ How many errors per page did acrobat OCR make?
\_ My originals weren't particularly good, but acrobat
didn't make many mistakes on main text, maybe 2 or
3 per page not counting missing spaces. It had a
harder time w/ figures, but overall it wasn't too
bad. |
